A propos de cet article

pp. 64. With 4 photo-lithographs reproduced from separation drawings, and illustrated with numerous colour and monochrome illustrations of PaolozziÕs work. The Metallization of a Dream is an artistÕs book / monograph, showing in word and image PaolozziÕs artistic process. Designed and written by John Munday in collaboration with the artist (with a commentary by Lawrence Alloway), the book was described by Paolozzi as Òrandom jottings of ideasÉwhich are developed as I work on my material. the search for architypes to aid a dream in metalÓ. It deals with many Independent Group obsessions, including new technology, popular culture, the relationship between body and machine and visual representation. The book's aesthetic is typical of Paolozzi's work of that time; it is chaotic, rough and non-sequential. Published in an edition of approximately 400 copies, this copy is numbered no.86. Original black calf-backed paper covered boards embossed with devices and with Paolozzi designs in silver across both covers. Original clear plastic dust-jacket with some tears and loss to upper edge.
