Henry Moore’s drawings are far less well known than his sculpture, and the first thing that strikes you about them is how monumental and sculptural they are.
This is true even when he’s drawing people in a particular time and place: in the tunnels of the Underground during the Blitz, in the coalmines of Wales in the war from which Moore made hundreds of sketches from 1940 to 1941. These form the basis of the exhibition.
