Eduardo Paolozzi (1924-2005) made work that abounds with energy and inventiveness. In both sculpture and printmaking he created a unique style which extends Surrealist ideas and merges them with the ephemera and concerns of everyday culture. Using a wide range of materials, Paolozzi has produced a vast and varied body of work that reflects the changing face of the twentieth century.

This display is from three series of graphic works in the YSP collection: General Dynamic FUN, Moonstrip Empire News and Bunk. All stand as pictorial sourcebooks which reveal the underbelly of postwar history through its adverts, movies, toys, magazines, packaging and emerging technology. Paolozzi's collage technique and vibrant designs transform the ordinary into something remarkable.
