Artist/Maker
Place of origin

Paolozzi is perhaps best known for his influence on the development of Pop Art, appropriating images from advertisements, magazines and comic strips. He is also recognised for his sculptural works and geometric prints. The artist's multiple he designed for Momart in 1991 bears similarities to both his printmaking and sculptures.
