EDUARDO PAOLOZZI (1924 – 2005), “Meet the People”, 1948. Tate Museum, London UK.
Despite what people usually think, Pop Art originated in the UK and the Scottish artist Eduardo Paolozzi is considered to be one of the movement’s pioneers. He described himself as a Surrealist artist, and the Surrealist influence on much of his work is obvious. Paolozzi’s philosophy was to not waste anything and he found many ways to incorporate seemingly unconnected and useless objects – from magazine clippings to wine boxes - into his collages. The term “Pop Art” was not coined until 1958, but in “Meet the People”, one of ten collages from Paolozzi’s “Bunk” series, we can already see the themes that would drive Pop: consumerism, celebrity culture and mass media. The components that went into “Meet the People” were taken primarily from magazines given to the artist by American GIs. Paolozzi created his collages in scrapbooks.
