A Trip Through the Life's Work of a Grown-up Kid, Eduardo Paolozzi,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Eduardo Paolozzi: Writings and Interviews (Hardcover)
A lad from Scotland is sent by his Italian butcher Parents for summers to an idyllic nautical-theme children's camp run by Mussolini's Blackshirts. That artist was to become U.K.'s Sir Eduardo Paolozzi. Somehow, he just had to turn out different. One of Britain's finest working sculptors, there is nothing tepid about his multimedia work. A key participant in Britain's pivotal collective art enterprise, the Independent Group, Paolozzi continues to amaze. "Eduado Paolozzi: Writings and Interviews" allows the artist to speak directly to us. We are almost unaware of the deft work by editor, Robin Spencer---just as it should be.
When a workman's skill and intellect is fused with a talented child. we get Paolozzi. Attractively designed and fresh enough to offer an unblemished look into this very unstuffy work by Britain's leading artistic maverick (deceased 2005). "Eduardo Paolozzi; Writings and Interviews" shows us just how that came to pass. The illustrations and documents chosen offer a wide. often intimate view, into a brilliant creative artist's daily practice, and wide range of art production.
