Henry Moore Textiles is the first publication of the twenty-eight designs commissioned by the Czech refugee, Zika Ascher from Moore during the last years of the Second World War and the early years of the 1950s. The images are newly photographed for this book and do justice to his abstract and popular patterns. Illustrations of subjects as diverse and random as safety pins or wavey landscapes pepper his accessible work. Issued to accompany an exhibition. Henry Moore Textiles reveal an entirely new dimension to this well-known artist.
