HENRY MOORE DRAWING COMPETITION 2019
The house where Henry Moore lived in Perry Green, Hertfordshire today is a museum surrounded by 70 acres of land where people can admire Moore's sculptures and studios.
Inside the museum it's shown the development of the sculptures as various steps to produce the final artwork as Moore intended to cast in bronze, from the maquettes to the monumental piece of art, throughout preparatory drawings, observation of shells and collected objects, flints, stones that all were useful to Moore as basics to elaborate his own sculptures inspired to natural and casual shapes though objects, often female forms as main theme of his own artistic thoughts and observation.
The medieval barn hosts big tapestries inspired to Moore's drawings commissioned to West Dean College.
The Henry Moore Foundation has organised a Drawing Competition inspired to the art of Moore for the year 2019.
The themes are:
Reclining Figure
Mother and Child
Natural forms

La casa dove abitava Henry Moore a Perry Green è oggi un museo con attorno settanta acri di terreno all'aperto dove campeggiano le sculture dell'artista.
L'interno del museo mostra ai visitatori le varie fasi del processo di lavorazione scultorea di Moore, dalla maquette al pezzo monumentale, con i disegni preparatori, l'osservazione delle conchiglie, dei sassi, di pezzi di legno pietrificato, che servivano a Moore come base concreta per elaborare le sculture spesso ispirate a elementi naturali e a forme casuali unite al tema onnipresente del femminino che permea tanta parte della sua produzione artistica.
Il fienile medioevale ospita arazzi di grandi dimensioni riproducenti i disegni inspirati a Moore commissionati al West Dean College.
