The earliest of these were still in an abstract expressionist idiom, but the artist began engaging with the medium in earnest in the mid-1960s, as the pop style for which he is famed took shape. Pop art’s inspiration in consumer goods and mass media naturally led to experiments with commercial printing methods such as silk-screening, and Ramos was one of its foremost practitioners.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis catalog is an invaluable resource for researchers, collectors and aficionados alike.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eby Ernst Hilger (Preface), Mel Ramos (Artist), Claire Breukel (Contributor), Jeanette Zwingenberger (Contributor) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePaperback, 237 Pages, Published September 2020\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Audrey's Museum Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47943822934203,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0548\/0444\/7419\/files\/61t9VhO6qHL._SL1000.jpg?v=1781113034","url":"https:\/\/shop.skirball.org\/products\/mel-ramos-the-definitive-catalogue-raisonne-of-original-prints","provider":"Audrey's Museum Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
