About this artwork

In 1968 Eduardo Paolozzi was appointed to the ceramics department at the Royal College of Art, London. Shortly afterwards he was invited to make a set of plates by the firm of Wedgwood. The prototypes were made with the assistance of David Queensberry, Professor of Ceramics at of the Collage. Paolozzi’s geometric designs were made in the lithographic studios at the College and transferred onto the plates at the Wedgwood factory. There are six different designs, each a variant on the same geometric theme.
