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 event highlights a significant investment in the visitor experience at Hoglands, balancing historic preservation with modern expectations. The focus on the Shelter Drawings connects the physical transformation of the site directly to Moore's artistic response to conflict and his foundational years at the estate, reinforcing the location's ongoing relevance as a living archive of his work and legacy.
