Mid

This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the project's importance scale.

See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Untitled[edit]

Barbara Hepworth was a key figure in the abstract movement in Britain. Her adherence to abstraction was lifelong and drew on geometric as well as organic shapes. It was she who introduced into England the idea of piercing the solid mass of sculpture with a "hole," making the object more transparent. This concept influenced the future work of Henry Moore, among others. In time, Hepworth's use of this technique grew more complex as she stretched the hole into oval and spiral shapes. She Loved art and made it fun for herself she liked to make her sculpture's out of wood, stone and plaster. She liked sculptures with holes in them

Sure. So, you're saying the article is incomplete or something? Gingermint (talk) 23:18, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Single Form[edit]

"One of her most prestigious works is Single Form[3], in memory of her friend and collector of her works Dag Hammarskjöld, at the United Nations building in New York City. It was commissioned in 1961 by the Jacob and Hilda Blaustein Foundation following Hammarskjöld's death in a plane crash."

This work is in Battersea Park in London. The one in London could be a copy or the original moved.

chronology?[edit]

I have a lot of questions about this article. The chronology is hard to follow. Also, the dates and the footnotes need to be checked. There are missing citations. Some of the sections need to be 'unpacked' for clarity, and their critical points better supported.Sicklemoon (talk) 17:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
