Eduardo Paolozzi
As a boy sculptor and artist Eduardo Paolozzi collected cigarette packet cards of Hollywood stars, aircraft and submarines, which fired a lifelong fascination with the relationship between humans and machines.
His early collages of US popular culture images were groundbreaking for post-war Britain and made him a formative figure in the pop art movement. In this interview filmed in his studio in 1971, Paolozzi explains how the images from the popular culture of his youth informed his art. Paolozzi died on 22 April 2005.
