All is Revealed


A large structure covered in white curtains what could it be?  On my way back past Kings Cross Station a couple of hours later, all was revealed: A giant Henry Moore sculpture.

The three meter high sculpture, inspired by a pebble (no really Moore obviously lives in giant land) is on long term loan.  I wonder what inspiration this will give the students at St Martins school of art just up the road.

  4. I'm never quite sure about old Henry. Some of his work I really like but this one falls into the Not Sure category. Maybe you need to see it 'in the flesh'.

  5. Henry Moore was the rage when I was in college many moons ago. I still like seeing it (though, to answer John, most Moore works MUST be seen in person to be appreciated), but I wonder what the art students of today think about it. I suspect it is not held in as high regard by young people as by old folks like me.
