1977
From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Printing proof Paolozzi 1977 is a 1977 by Eduardo Paolozzi, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a tall, narrow building with odd, twisting pipes running up and down its sides. The walls are covered in vertical lines, like columns, while the pipes curve and loop in strange patterns. Inside, there’s a small room with a circular window or vent near the top, and the whole scene looks like a mix of architecture and machinery. The drawing feels like a puzzle—parts don’t quite match up, and the pipes don’t follow normal rules. It’s more about shapes and surprises than realism. If you like this, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like it.
A printing proof from 1977 by Paolozzi, this work is part of a set of 48 prints combining various techniques such as woodcuts, linocuts, wood engravings, copper engravings, and cut formica, with some pieces signed and dated in pencil.
