Moore was born in Castleford, West Yorkshire, in 1898, and later moved to the village of Perry Green.
He is best known for his bronze sculptures but he also made carvings, drawings, prints and designed textiles and tapestries, external.
Moore’s key themes included reclining figures, mother and child and multi-part sculptures, the Henry Moore Foundation said.
It has recently installed nine sculptures at the open-air exhibition, two of which have never been displayed at Perry Green before.
“This season marks one of the most extensive outdoor displays of Henry Moore’s work in the world,” the foundation said.
