Biography:
Henry Spencer Moore was an English sculptor and artist. He was best known for his abstract monumental
bronze sculptures which are located around the world as public works of art.
His forms are usually abstractions of the human figure, typically depicting mother-and-child or reclining
figures. Moore’s works are usually suggestive of the female body, apart from a phase in the 1950s when
he sculpted family groups. His forms are generally pierced or contain hollow spaces. Many interpreters
liken the undulating form of his reclining figures to the landscape and hills of his birthplace, Yorkshire.
His ability in later life to fulfill large-scale commissions made him exceptionally wealthy. Yet he lived
frugally and most of the money he earned went towards endowing the Henry Moore Foundation, which
continues to support education and promotion of the arts.
