Three Way Piece No. 2: The Archer Archive
Known briefly as “The Archer,” this sculpture is one of British sculptor Henry Moore’s most important works. It exists in two monumental bronze casts and was created for the forecourt of the City Hall of Toronto/Canada, where it corresponds with the latter’s flowing lines and was installed in 1966. The second copy was installed on the terrace of the Berlin Neue Nationalgalerie in 1968. In 2015, renovation work began there that required the sculpture to go into storage. That was the only reason why the opportunity arose to bring the sculpture to Münster as a loan for the exhibition “Henry Moore. Impuls für Europa” (Impulse for Europe), which the museum presented in 2016/17, and where it has stood on the museum forecourt ever since.
