v. 1. 1916-29 ISBN 9780853315995
内容説明
Volume 1 of this six-volume catalogue raisonne of Henry Moore's drawings follows the publication of Volumes 5 and 6 in 1994. While the later volumes look at the drawings produced between 1977 to 1983, Volume 1 journeys back to the earliest days of Moore's career, reproducing around 1,000 drawings from the period 1916-29. This was an eventful time for Moore, and covers his student days, his first public commission - the North Wind relief for the London Transport Executive Building, St James's (1928) - and his first one-man show at the Warren Gallery in London (1928).

v. 3. 1940-49 ISBN 9780853316015
内容説明
As part of the series covering the complete drawings of Henry Moore, this third volume deals with the years of World War II, the only period of Moore's working life when he was not actively involved in making sculpture. The decade includes his exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the birth of his daughter in 1946 and his long association with Curt Valentin and the Buchholz Gallery, New York. Moore was appointed an Official War Artist in 1940 and his drawings of figures in the London Underground shelters during the Blitz brought his work before the general public for the first time. At the end of 1941, he visited Wheldale Colliery in Yorkshire to record miners working at the coalface. After these commissions, other drawings such as mother and child studies were made for sculpture projects. In addition to sculptural themes, Moore experimented with textile designs, and in response to literary commissions, he illustrated Edward Sackville-West's "The Rescue", 1946, and Andre Gide's "Promethee", 1949. This was a rich period for Moore's drawing, with new ideas being introduced that were later to bring him worldwide recognition.

v. 4. 1950-76 ISBN 9780853316022
内容説明
This volume in the complete catalogue of Henry Moore's drawings covers the period 1950 to 1976. Its publication marks the completion of the chronological catalogue of Moore's drawings. Although Moore's overwhelming preoccupation during this period was his sculpture, he nevertheless found time to experiment with different media, drawing with felt-tipped pens and brush-and-ink on tissue paper laid down on normal-weight drawing paper, for example. He also painted on blotting paper, using random offset patches of watercolour as a starting-point for his imagination - which never faltered, despite the increasing physical frailty which beset him during the 1970s as his 80th birthday approached. This volume is the largest in the series and features about 2000 entries and accompanying illustrations. Its compilation has been a research challenge: in the course of the 26 years covered by this volume Moore used many notebooks, some large, some very small, some begun in one year and then laid aside, forgotten or indeed mislaid until the artist took them up again several years later.
When exhibitions were planned, or dealers requested drawings, Moore would tear pages out of the notebooks, and these were often only minimally catalogued before being sold on to galleries or collectors around the world. The considerable research work which has gone into establishing the chronology and media of the drawings in this volume should therefore be welcomed by Moore scholars worldwide.

v. 7. 1984-86 ISBN 9780853318934
内容説明
This seventh and final volume in the complete catalogue of Henry Moore's drawings provides a key to the material contained in the other six volumes. It gives a consolidated version of all the reference apparatus contained in each of the other volumes (index, concordance and list of exhibitions), enabling the user to track down any particular drawing from any period or volume by means of its title, HMF or AG number. In addition, this volume includes a list of addenda and corrigenda relating to information that has come to light since this series was launched in 1994. Some 150 items are included in this section. The opportunity has also been seized to catalogue about 600 previously unpublished drawings produced by Moore in the last two years of his life (1984-86) and held in the archives of the Henry Moore Foundation. About 50 of these are illustrated and give a flavour of the fine quality of the artist's output even as he approached the end of his life.
