Henry Moore – Shaping his Century
Henry Moore and his work, starting from his bronze Atom Piece
Appreciation of the life and work of Henry Moore, the British sculptor, starts with his bronze, Atom Piece, and how he came to make it. Friends, colleagues and critics contribute.
In a recording, the artist himself says: "An artist's value to the rest of the world is that he uses his eyes to make other people somewhat interested in what he's done – he helps them to use their eyes."
