One of the leading sculptors of the twentieth century, Barbara Hepworth (1903–1975) trained at Leeds School of Art (where she met and became friends with Henry Moore) and at the Royal College of Art.

Brand information
The Tate collection is the national collection of British art from 1500 to the present day and incorporates international modern and contemporary art, which includes nearly 70,000 artworks. Started as the National Gallery of British Art, the gallery opened its doors in Millbank, London to the public in 1897, displaying a small collection of British artworks. In 1889, the Tate was bolstered by industrialist Henry Tate's large collection of British nineteenth-century art, bequeathed to the nation along with funding for the first Tate Gallery, built at Millbank, now known as Tate Britain, which opened in 1897. In 1955, Tate Gallery became wholly independent from the National Gallery and a major extension opened in 1979.
Tate expanded outside of its original London home with the opening of Tate Liverpool in May 1988 and Tate Gallery, St Ives, Cornwall opening in June 1993. Tate Modern opened in 2000, becoming a London landmark in the former Bankside Power Station, on the opposite side of the Thames from St Paul's Cathedral.
