Aluminum was a lightweight construction material increasingly used in the 1950s by architects. It is sometimes associated with the New Pragmaticist architecture being built in Britain in these years. McHale's 'head-collages' of the 1950s, although they bear a superficial resemblance to Paolozzi's works, have been better described as images of the 'media-fed man' (Robert Freeman) -- figures that are "defined by what they consume." This consumerist conception of collage differs somewhat from its predecessors.
