Curator: Here we have Sir Eduardo Paolozzi's "Spontaneous Discrimination Non-Spontaneous Discrimination." Editor: It feels like a strangely cheerful grid, like a utopian blueprint gone slightly awry. Curator: Note the interplay between planned structure and what might be perceived as accidental arrangements of color and form. Editor: Right, the title itself suggests a commentary on categorization, doesn't it? Are we pre-programmed to see patterns, even where they might not truly exist? Curator: Precisely, and Paolozzi masterfully questions the very notion of objective versus subjective perception. Editor: It's almost unsettling how something so visually playful can provoke such unnerving questions. Curator: Indeed. Paolozzi leaves us pondering the boundaries of order and chaos. Editor: Leaving me to rethink the entire nature of how I see. Thanks, Eduardo!
