Henry Moore is most famous for his abstract bronze sculptures, particularly the "Reclining Figure" series. These works, characterized by their organic forms and smooth surfaces, explore the relationship between the human body and the surrounding environment. One of his iconic pieces, "Reclining Figure No. 2," exemplifies his style and has become a symbol of modern sculpture. Moore's ability to combine natural shapes with a sense of tranquility has earned him a lasting legacy in the art world.
Henry Moore first sculpted "Standing Figure" in 1951. After this sculpture, his work takes a different turn and becomes many sculptures of human figures that are reclining, a modern take on Aztec and Mayan sculptures.
The most famous armless sculpture is the so-called Venus de Milo. It is thought to be the work of Alexandros of Antioch and was created at some time between 130 and 100 BC.
Most probably The David by Micheal Angelo [I dont know how to spell his name]
There were two favored materials for sculpture in ancient Greece. Most surviving statues are made out of either bronze or marble.
Alexander Calder's most famous piece is likely "Mobiles," a type of kinetic sculpture he pioneered that features balanced, moving parts. One of the most iconic examples is "Lobster Trap and Fish Tail" (1939), which exemplifies his innovative use of color and movement. Calder's work revolutionized the concept of sculpture by incorporating motion and engaging viewers in a dynamic experience. His contributions to art have made him a significant figure in 20th-century modernism.

You need to refine your question. They way you phrased it, it could be interpreted in any of the following quite different ways: 1. Who is the most famous painter now residing in Britain? 2. Who is the most famous British painter? 3.
