Description
Summary:	The book, dedicated to Henry Moore (1898-1986) - one of the most renowned artists of the twentieth century - has been published fifty years after the great Florentine exhibition in Forte Belvedere. The graphics and sculptures of the British master, reproduced in color, are accompanied by critical texts that reconstruct his life and artistic path."Drawing keeps one fit, like physical exercises - perhaps acts like water to a plant - and it lessens the danger of repeating oneself and getting into a formula. It enlarges one's form repertoire, one's form experience." - Henry Moore
