MOMA2 in Edinburgh

One of my favourite (permanent) exhibits, the Paolozzi Studio explanatory text in alt text and of course the caff.

A very crowded art space with a bed! The Paolozzi Studio This is a recreation of the two main London studios where Eduardo Paolozzi lived and worked. Paolozzi's gift to the National Galleries of Scotland consists of three thousand sculptures (mostly plaster casts) and moulds, two thousand prints and drawings, three thousand books and a large collection of the artist's tools and materials, toys, periodicals, scrapbooks, manuscripts, photographs, and slides. The studio reconstruction, conceived and carried out by the National Galleries of Scotland in collaboration with the artist and his assistant, contains most of this material. The large studio table supports a variety of media for sculpture, e.g. wax, plaster, and bronze. The work stations on either side of the entrance show paper-cutting for image-gathering and collage. The space below the sleeping platform houses the bulk of the artist's library, a plan chest of prints, and an area for making scrapbooks. The wooden boxes stacked around the walls are full of small plaster elements that are collaged together to make composite sculptures and installations. Examples of Paolozzi's home- made furniture, e.g. stools and plinths, are interspersed throughout the room.
