Getting around Moore
Sitanun navigating her way around a Henry Moore ...The Botanical Gardens, Wellington ... Henry Moore's sculpture, Bronze Form which has been in the city since 1988 .. originally placed in Midland Park, it was coated with a wax and resin to retain the original bright bronze colour. However if you have had the pleasure of seeing and touching one of Moore's sculptures in the wild, you will know that an integral part of the sculpture is the manner in which it ages in its surrounding environment. I spent a month during the winter of 1996 at Arden House Harriman, NJ and hidden in the woodlands on the hills around this gracious old world estate .. are some Henry Moore sculptures. Billy Apple is creating the debate about "less" environmental protection for the sculpture will actually create "more" ... and be a work of art as Moore anticipated.
