This article discusses about the artist Henry Moore's large show at Knoedler which provokes to view his work with a fresh insight. Moore's sculpture is still powerful, weighty, beautifully finished and passionless. It still aspires to nobility, and still fails short of it, and it still claims a purifying, communion with nature while remaining overly calculated. The relation between nature and tradition in Moore has always been an intimate one. He tends to use sensations from the former to rub out his overwheIming dependence on the latter.
