Provenance:
With Flowers Gallery, London where purchased by private collector, and thence by descent.
A number of Paolozzi's collage works evolved into three dimensionality during the mid and late 1970s. 3 Pikabio is a fine example, a collage exploring geometric reliefs and abstract components in a way that reflects his sculptural practice.
Paolozzi claimed that he 'always thought collage could be introduced to sculpture....Where you would cut sentences out of books, and then collage them together at random, the same might be true in sculpture by moving elements around so that you get something that's beyond one's deliberate conception'.
