This handbook represents the culmination of a long-held ambition. The Henry Moore Institute is proud to represent ''sculpture'' across various media, not simply sculpture itself. We regard graphic, archive and library material as equally important in terms of studying sculpture, and in terms of seeing how it has been studied in the past. Though we have earlier produced concise catalogues of the sculpture, graphics and archive holdings of Leeds Museums and Galleries, it is infinitely preferable to have, here in one handbook, a guide to all the 20th-century holdings and to see them as representing one collectionVolume I Identity, Infrastructures, Aesthetics, Display, Reception Volume II A Guide to Sculptors in the Leeds Collections
¿ Only now can we begin to fashion an understanding of 20th-century Britain, and with it, the meaning of sculpture, in this country, in these years. These two volumes start to retell the story of sculpture in Britain as being as much outside as inside the gallery, by immigrants as much as by the ''British'', and in the form of printed material as much as in primary production. Published to mark the tenth anniversary of the Henry Moore Institute, these books are a sign of the fact that the Institute has come to function as the centre of a network or community of information.
* Volume I provides a new survey of the period, drawing on recent scholarship by twenty authors, which examines the various contexts in which sculpture was produced and interpreted.
* Volume II offers lively introductions to 175 sculptors practising in 20th-century Britain, and is supplemented by a concise catalogue of the sculpture, archive and library holdings in Leeds. 1-900081-98-9. Item #345-7
