Eduardo Paolozzi

Sculpture

Eduardo Paolozzi created sculptures, collages, mosaics, and films that synthesized machine impressions, found objects, and prefabricated industrial castings into geometric human forms. Working from Leith, he embraced technology as a source of formal and conceptual renewal rather than alienation, positioning popular culture and engineering as legitimate subjects for sculpture. A key figure in British Surrealism and an influential precursor to Pop Art.
