The Henry Moore Foundation has reopened the Sheep Field Barn gallery at Moore's former home and studio in Perry Green after a major architectural redesign by DSDHA. The reopening is marked by an exhibition of Moore's seminal Shelter Drawings, created when he first arrived at the estate during the Second World War.
The article is a weekly entertainment guide covering cinema, gigs, art, stage, streaming, games, albums, and other cultural events. In the art section, it highlights two major exhibitions in London and its surroundings: a solo show of new paintings by British artist Cecily Brown at the Serpentine Gallery, created in response to Kensington Gardens, and a display of Henry Moore's iconic Shelter Drawings at his studio in Perry Green, focusing on his depictions of Londoners during the Blitz.
The Henry Moore Foundation has completed a £5m redevelopment of the Sheep Field Barn at the sculptor’s former home in Perry Green, Hertfordshire. The project, led by architecture firm DSDHA, transforms a former farm building into a sophisticated complex featuring improved exhibition galleries and two purpose-built learning studios. The site will open to the public on April 1, 2026, serving as a permanent hub for exploring the artist's legacy through his extensive archives and sculpture collection.
