Rodin, Brancusi, Moore: Through the Sculptor’s Lens

Photography played an important part in the practices of these three great sculptors capturing works that are now lost, destroyed or were never realised. Auguste Rodin employed a number of photographers as a means to not only publicise his work but also to study his work in progress. Constantin Brancusi considered an image of his work far superior to any written analysis, thus allowing his work to speak through photography. Henry Moore’s photos that form an extensive catalogue of his productive career have rarely been exhibited and here offer an insight to his preparatory process.
