3. Eduardo Paolozzi
4. Patrick Procktor
5. Malcolm Carder
6. Liliane Lijn

Sidey notes that Carder's contribution uses 'Balls (that) fly and jostle against a grid construction', and that Dallegret's contribution is a 'Silhouetted kiss'. Grayson's is described as a 'Balloon (that) is blown up across the paper surface'; Lijn's is described as a 'Flying form over the contours of a landscape'; Paolozzi's is a 'play on two suspended ovals'; Procktor's is a young man taking a shower; and Schmidt's work is described as a 'Bare stem (that) acquires leaves and is transformed into a flying bird and a sun'.
