His large-scale semi-abstract sculptures can be seen not only in institutions around the world, but in many outdoor\/public spaces as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoore's aesthetic, whether expressed on paper or in three-dimensions, is simultaneously elegant yet slightly primitive. Moore's creations suggest they have been either reduced by time or the forces of nature but also demonstrate the artist's mastery at the stylization of the human body. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaviar20 has a particular interest in sculptors who included printmaking as part of their process (Jean Arp, Louise Bourgeois, Kosso Eloul etc.). \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHenry Moore is one of the leading 20th century sculptors\/printmakers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eDuring his lifetime, Moore created over 700 etchings, lithographs, etc., exploring all aspects of printmaking. The practice of printmaking was completely correspondent to his sculptures. He would explore the form or character in one medium and either later realize it in the other medium or vice versa. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=w_uxBC_8tGk\" title=\"Henry Moore prints exhibition tour organized by the British Council\"\u003eTo learn more about Henry Moore's prints we recommend this video tour of an exhibition of Henry Moore's prints that was organized by the British Council.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lithograph is a paradigm of Moore's printed aesthetic. A seated figure is set on a platform, anchored by patchworked taupe textures. The figure is portrayed in his sculptural style, with length, fullness, and a quintessentially modern disposition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor art lovers in Toronto, Henry Moore has a special relevancy and connection.
