Abstract (English)

"Two things will properly strike every visitor to this exhibition; firstly, an impression of size, and secondly, closely related to it, an impression of disturbing power. These are essentially big sculpture [...] The ability to command shapes of this kind has always been a distinctive characteristic of Moore<s personality as a sculptor. But it has never been as forcibly and consistently in evidence as during the period covered by this exhibition." -- page [4].
