Product Description
Book Description
Barbara Hepworth (1903-1975) is internationally acclaimed as one of the major sculptors of the mid-20th century. Initially a carver of hard woods and stones, she diversified her work to include plasters and bronzes, as well as paintings, drawings, and prints. Examples of all these art forms are included in this unrivaled collection of Hepworth's works, providing an overview of the whole of her 50-year career. New research and current assessments combine to throw light on the making, history, and contemporary reception of 83 pieces. This is the most extensive and detailed reassessment of Hepworth's work to have been undertaken to date.

Key for Hepworth Research, Nov 24 2001
By Stacy Fuller "bookworm" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Barbara Hepworth: Works in Tate Collection and Barbara Hepworth Museum St. Ives (Hardcover)
Filled completely with images and information of Hepworth's pieces in the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth Museum in St. Ives, this book (known as the bible to Hepworth researchers) provides key background information and provenance on a large portion of her works. With so few accurate resources for Hepworth available, this book is crucial for comparing other resources and for providing images of her work in all mediums in one collection. This is a valuable research tool.
