Natural/Man-made

C.Eliot Hodgkin studied the way nature would quickly take over the bomb sites left after WWII. All sorts of plants would grow in the rubble (above). Birmingham born John Salt has always been fascinated with old American cars. He particularly focuses his hyper-realistic work on cars left to rust away and be overgrown by vegetation (below).
Eduardo Paolozzi is always associated with the Pop Art movement. His work often involved combining mechanical forms with figurative imagery.
