Piscator (Paolozzi)

Piscator, also known as the Euston Head, is a large abstract sculpture by Eduardo Paolozzi.

It was commissioned by British Rail in 1980 for the forecourt of Euston Station in London, and is named for the German theatre director Erwin Piscator.

The sides of the sculpture have silvered bumps and hollows; viewed from above, the top surface resolves into a blocky human body and face.

It is described in Pevsner as "a silvered block with curved hollows, and rectangular shapes above".

A series of six 4.5 inches (110 mm) models in bronze were also cast, with one held by the Science Museum.
