Catalogue commemorating the artist’s seventy-fifth birthday. This retrospective monograph unites Mel Ramos’s drawings, paintings, and
sculptures.
Mel Ramos (*1935 in Sacramento, California), one of the most significant
figures of Pop Art, borrows motifs from the mass media and commercial
advertisements for his work, just as his contemporaries Andy Warhol and
Roy Lichtenstein did. To create his paintings, he combines a wide
variety of consumer goods with immaculate, self-confident, and
frequently naked women. Drawing upon the imagery in pinup magazines of
the fifties and sixties and the lifestyle magazines of today, he
portrays his female figures wrapped lasciviously around the products
with which he pairs them. This publication offers a survey of Ramos’s
production over the last fifty years, ranging from the first
self-portrait he executed in 1959 to his most recent three-dimensional
works. On the occasion of the artist’s first large-scale museum
retrospective in Europe as well as his seventy-fifth birthday, this
volume presents several insightful essays and illustrations of around
ninety works drawn from the various series Ramos has produced, including
his earliest figurative paintings, his depictions of comic-book heroes
and heroines, the Fashion and Animal Paintings, his famous pinup girls,
his tributes to art history, his landscapes, and his sketches and recent
sculptures.
