“Unquestionably the greatest photographer of sculpting in the world who himself became a sculptor.” Tom Rosenthal
Frederick Kenett studied photography at the Guildford School of Art, where he developed a superb mode of lighting and photographing sculpture. He worked for publishers, museums, collections and governments, taking pictures of sculptures throughout the world.
However, from the mid-1960s, Kenett turned his attention away from the photography of sculpture to creating sculpture itself. Working with Henry Moore amongst others, his works elicited a strong response from the leading London galleries and were exhibited at the Grosvenor Galleries in 1966. The Arts Review praised the ‘perfect form’ of his sculptures whereas the The Listener wrote, ‘there is a sense of ease and power one usually finds only in work by senior and more illustrious names.’
