What We Do

Touring exhibitions and loans

The Henry Moore Foundation was created by the artist and his family in 1977 to encourage public appreciation of the visual arts and to preserve his legacy.

Today, we support innovative sculpture projects and devise rigorous and imaginative programmes of exhibitions worldwide.

Collaborate with us

Henry Moore was a pioneer, and the first British artist to become a global star in his own lifetime. His appeal remains just as great and widespread today.

The Foundation’s extensive programme of collaborative exhibitions at venues across the world over the last forty years is testament to this popularity and to the continued relevance of Moore’s art.

Our collection consists of around 15,000 works by Henry Moore, including sculpture, maquettes, drawings, prints, tapestries, textiles and studio materials.

Image licensing

We have photographic records of Moore’s life and work, including nearly all of his artworks and exhibitions, as well as thousands of photographs of Moore himself. Images are available for research or to license for publication.

Exhibitions at the Henry Moore Institute, Leeds

The Henry Moore Institute in Leeds presents an ever changing array of exhibitions on historical, modern and contemporary sculpture.
