Eduardo Paolozzi: General Dynamic F.U.N.

Saturday 11 January – Sunday 30 March 2025 | Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum

Pop art pioneer, Eduardo Paolozzi (1924–2005), created General Dynamic F.U.N, a series of fifty screenprints and photolithographs, between 1965 and 1970.

Paolozzi’s canny alchemy is vividly apparent in General Dynamic F.U.N. Idols and household names of consumer advertising, high fashion and Hollywood appear in these kaleidoscopic images.

Born in Scotland, Paolozzi was a compulsive collector and a jumbler of icons. A self-described ‘wizard in Toytown’, he transformed the mundane, the derelict, and the mass-produced into images that zap with electric eclecticism and impress with their graphic complexity.

Free to visit. Plan your visit to Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum. UPDATE as of Wednesday 19 March, the lift is now back in action, accessible from Taylor’s Lane.
