Description: | CRE PAOLOZZI, Eduardo, Sir; (Scottish; 1924-2005) This scrapbook was exhibited as part of "Lost Magic Kingdoms" at the Museum of Mankind, 1985 and the touring exhibition, 1988-89. Like some of the other scrapbooks in the exhibition, it was displayed open, showing a page of pasted tear sheets featuring tattooed hands and a stone Mexican moon goddess. There is also a picture that is the inspiration for the Mother Goddess Paolozzi created in Catno 54988. The scrapbook is filled primarily with images relating to primitivism as well as some modern subjects like machinery. At one point in his career, Paolozzi felt that both the primitive and the modern had been neglected in British art. This exhibition is perhaps a manifestation of that view. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | LOST MAGIC KINGDOMS : ETHNOGRAPHY : SCRAPBOOK : INSPIRATION : TEARSHEETS : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
