Today I'd like to talk about the sculptor Henry Moore, in particular the ideas that his work are based on, and also about how he viewed the medium of sculpture. Moore said that to appreciate sculpture a person needs to respond to form in all of its 3 dimensions. He believed that this is more difficult than responding to the art which had been done on a flat surface, which like canvas has only one dimension. For example, you needn' t have to walk around it when you' re looking at a painting. You needn ' t relate to form and shape in the same way you do when shaping in nature such as that of bones and shells and stones. He thought that you could appreciate the shape of something simple, just like a stone. He noticed that many of the stones which he picked up had holes in them. One distinctive feature of Moore' s sculpture is his use of holes which is an opening to emphasize that he is indeed working in a 3 dimensional medium. He believed that the shape of a solid mass could even help create a sense of mass or volume. Moore was also interested in representing the human' s figure, which he sculpted in such materials as bronze, stone, and wood.
