Bill Brandt and Henry Moore: Photography in Four Dimensions - Research Lunch
Bill Brandt and Henry Moore were first brought together by the circumstances of the Second World War, when both supplied the government with images that responded to the urgency of the times. A major new book and exhibition examine the intersecting paths of these two artists during the war and post-war era. In it, Brandt is revealed as a photographer attuned to the vitality of sculpture and the plastic potential of landscape and the body; Moore is shown to be a sculptor, draftsman, and collage artist who made a serious commitment to photography as a creative medium.
