100+ Drawings by

Mel Ramos

Women, pleasure, sex and entertainment – Mel Ramos´s images present the viewer with a dazzling, provocative, alluring and sometimes raunchy visual language.
The artist drapes his pin-up girls over painted commercial products in risqué, dynamic poses. Ramos became famous for these commercial pin-ups, as they are known, at the end of the 1960s and has since evolved into one of the art world´s most challenging contemporary artists. This catalogue is the first of its kind to focus exclusively on Mel Ramos’s drawings. It includes the artist´s sketches and drawings from the 1960s to the present day, demonstrating his inimitable style, which addresses everyday myths and the synthetic dreams of the media and the advertising world.
