Henry Moore Institute

We welcome everyone to visit our Galleries, Research Library and Archive of
Sculptors’ Papers to experience, study and enjoy sculpture from around the world.
Find us in the centre of Leeds, the city where Henry Moore (1898–1986) began
his training as a sculptor.


Our changing programme of historical, modern and contemporary exhibitions and
events encourage thinking about what sculpture is, how it is made and the artists
who make it.

As part of the Henry Moore Foundation, we are a hub for sculpture, connecting
a global network of artists and scholars, continuing research into the art form
and ensuring that sculpture is accessible and celebrated by a wide audience.
