In the early 1980's, Tasende wrote a letter to Henry Moore, whom he had never met, stating that Tasende was interested in acquiring a large sculpture for the Phoenix Art Museum. The museum director, Ronald Hickman, was a friend of Tasende's who had also been a curator at the San Diego Museum of Art. Moore was represented in England by prestigious galleries, such as the Marlborough Gallery and Fisher Fine Arts, but Tasende wrote to the artist directly, inquiring about a large sculpture. Moore replied quickly and simply: "How large is large?" Tasende and Hickman jumped on a plane and went directly to Moore's house in Much Hadham, England. Tasende purchased one of Moore's reclining figures, which he later sold for $300,000 (Hickman was unable to make a deal for his museum). Thus began a mutually profitable relationship with the great British artist that lasted throughout the last years of Moore's life. Tasende has lost count of all the Moores he bought and sold. "Mostly I buy the larger pieces, the big pieces. Now everybody is looking for the big pieces. I buy whatever he gives to me, to tell you the truth. If he gives me large sculptures, I say fine, and I buy three at one time. You don't buy for someone else when you have access to this kind of material." . San Diego stringer Neal Matthews published a good article in the (San Diego) Reader entitled: "La Jolla gallery owner Tasende at the top Doesn't know if he loves art or hates it." (SD Reader June 16, 1988). In exceptionally good condition.
