Henry Moore was one of the most celebrated sculptors of is time, and the second part of his career, in particular, demonstrated that Modernist sculpture was, after all, surprisingly adaptable to official needs. He attended Leeds School of Art and Royal College of Art in London studying all forms of art and going on to teach at Chelsea School of Art, before the outbreak of World War II.  His works can be seen all over the world, including New York City and Paris.
