4 August 2015. Caro in Yorkshire at the Hepworth and YSP


This large exhibition of Caro’s work required more time than I gave it. A large part of the exhibition was housed in the Longside Gallery at YSP which closes, rather eccentrically, at 16.00 Anyway, what was truly fascinating there was the coverage of Caro’s journey from the figurative to the abstract. The display of the earlier work made clear the formative role of Henry Moore and included drawings with Moore’s annotations.


As for the abstract works, either they please you or they don’t. To me, they are great and have to be seen for the innovations that they are.
