Nature as inspiration \nand the connectedness between his works \u0026 the \nlandscape are significant themes in Moore\u0027s works, \nwhich support Kew\u0027s over-arching mission to protect \nthe natural world. \nHenry Moore Foundation holds the IP of all works that \nwill be exhibited at RBG Kew and require that only Mtec \nFine Art are experienced \u0026 trusted to transport several \nvaluable and unique artworks.\n30 large-scale bronze works (some up to 6 m) \nThe contract value includes: project management, \ninstall \u0026 deinstall planning \u0026 delivery, including fine art \ntechnicians to transport \u0026 handle artworks, driving \nspecialist vehicles (cranes, MEWPs etc), managing \nfabrication of specialist plinths/bases for sculptures, \nexcavations to specified scope of works by HMF, \nworking within RBG Kew site policies and procedures. \nA detailed breakdown of cost have been provided. \nAs a heavily collected and commercialised artist, \nworking with Henry Moore Foundation and Mtec Fine \nArt will also bring back financial benefit to RBG Kew \nthrough retail and publishing sales",
