About the Foundation

Our staff

Our staff are based across our two sites in Leeds and Hertfordshire.

The Henry Moore Institute, in Leeds, is a world recognised centre for the study and enjoyment of sculpture. Hosting a varied programme of exhibitions and events, the Institute is also home to an invaluable sculpture research library and archive of sculptors' papers. Staff based at the Institute are experts in their field and focus on the wider field of sculpture.

The Henry Moore Studios & Gardens is based at Henry Moore's former home in Perry Green, Hertfordshire. The Studios & Gardens are base for our Collections & Exhibitions team, who curate and preserve Moore's legacy to the Foundation and programme our extensive Henry Moore exhibition programme. Also based at the Studios & Gardens is the Henry Moore Archive.
