Eduardo Paolozzi

Categories: Sculpture

Countries: Italy, Scotland

Sculptor and printmaker. Born in Edinburgh of Italian parents. His father (and we think his maternal grandfather) died on the Arandora Star. A major figure in the development of the pop-art style. See his work also in the Tottenham Court Road underground murals (2015: many removed and sent to Edinburgh - being rebuilt) and a statue in High Holborn (also removed). In 1956 he appeared (starred) in short film, "Together", one of the Free Cinema experimental films.

2017: Very useful post from Londonist listing, with photos, Paolozzi's London works.
