Item Number: 115015 Title: HENRY MOORE in America : Art, Business and the Special Relationship Author: Rose, Pauline Price: Not Available ISBN: 9781848858213 Description: London: Tauris, 2014. 22cm., hardcover, 258pp. illus. Summary: Based on original sources, and containing many previously unpublished images, Pauline Rose's work explores the reasons for Moore's fame in America, and the construction of his American persona. This insightful text illustrates the ways in which Moore was presented to an American audience via text and imagery and the influential network of his supporters. It examines a range of sculptural commissions in key American cities, resulting from the ambitions of politicians and businessmen alike who perceived Moore's monumental sculptures as expressions of citizenship and humanity. A valuable addition to studies on Moore, this will be indispensable to all those interested in twentieth century art history and cultural studies, Anglo-American relations, and the vibrant relationship between text and image.
