Henry Moore at Zentrum Paul Klee
For the first time in 25-years, Switzerland’s Zentrum Paul Klee has opened an exhibition entirely dedicated to Henry Moore. Though many institutions have showcased to this icon 20th century British sculptor’s work, this latest offering analyzes his position in the post-war years and evaluates his oeuvre from a current standpoint. With pieces on-loan from the Tate and the British Council, Zentrum Paul Klee displays 28 sculptures and 42 works-on-paper – providing unique insight.
