I had to interpret for a chap who had gone to Havana to organise a Henry Moore-related project, sponsored by the British embassy. I cannot remember what the details were (more than 20 years ago) but it was my introduction to this brilliant artist.<br /><br />On another note, I share your feelings about the Manchester atrocity.

Must confess I know next to nothing about Moore and would need to think about some of the images. i don't think his type of art is for people in a hurry.

Honestly I’m not so much fan of modern abstract art, but I like sculptures in the landscape and your interpretation or impression through senses made me feel interested in those of Henry Moore’s. Yes, something on the hill top look kind of scary and I see a woman’s profile contemplating with her chin on her hand. A cup of tea at that conservatory surrounded by the greenery is so appealing.<br /><br />Thank you for both the comment on my latest post and the email in which you contained various interesting things. Hope you also read my email dated April 2 (in reply to your Feb. 27 email.) Enjoy the rest of your favorite month.<br /><br />Yoko <br />stardusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10684501661629146087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-71279053636485048842017-05-18T09:28:14.685+01:002017-05-18T09:28:14.685+01:00yes, I think we humans are programmed to do this i...yes, I think we humans are programmed to do this in some way ! :)Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7937298116504825290.post-60019474715692428532017-05-18T09:27:41.290+01:002017-05-18T09:27:41.290+01:00Thank you Jerry!
