This widely exhibited pop artist is most highly regarded for his paintings of semi-clad and naked women, who pose alluringly beside oversized cigars, monkeys and coke bottles. His paintings frequently have a humorous, cartoon quality, as revealed in his depiction of well known superheroes such as Wonder Woman and Captain Midnight. Inspired by advertizing, pin-up girls, his own erotic imagination and the works of the great masters, Mel Ramos' obsession with images feeds these objects and raises them as icons of the modern age.
