Eduardo Paolozzi: Collaging Culture

Eduardo Paolozzi: Collaging Culture

A major retrospective of the work of Eduardo Paolozzi, one of the most inventive and prolific of the British artists to come to prominence after the Second World War.

This retrospective explores the central importance of collage as both a working process and an approach to bringing together disparate sources of inspiration, from Paolozzi's iconic images cut from the pages of American magazines, to his robotic sculptures expressing man's relationship with technology. It features over 150 works from across his career, including early sculptures influenced by continental Surrealism, his textiles for Hammer Prints Ltd. and Horrockses Fashions in the 1950s, his innovative screenprints that made an important contribution to British Pop Art, ceramics designed for Wedgwood and Rosenthal, and maquettes for his later public commissions.
