20th Century Limestone Sculpture

About the Item

This sculpture has been made by Henry Munyaradzi (1931-1998). Known simply as “Henry”, Henry Munyaradzi is the best-known and most sought-after artist in the Zimbabwean sculpture movement. Henry was born in Guruve, northern Zimbabwe, in 1931. He began sculpting in 1967 at the Tengenenge sculpture community after meeting its owner-founder Tom Blomefield. His work formed part of several seminal exhibitions during the 1960s-1970s period, including at the Musée Rodin (Paris) and the Institute of Contemporary Arts (London). He also had eight solo exhibitions. From 1985 until his death, Henry lived and worked at his farm in Ruwa. A shy and humble man, he seemed slightly surprised by his immense success. He died in 1998 and is much missed by all those interested in the best of Zimbabwean sculpture.
