Lithograph on Canson 320g paper // Havanna 11 by Mel Ramos, created in 2016, is a vibrant lithograph on Canson 320g paper, showcasing Ramos’s playful fusion of pop art and pin-up aesthetics. The image features a nude woman with blonde hair posed beside an oversized Partagás cigar, her body leaning against it as she smiles at the viewer. Set against a bright blue background, the contrasting colors emphasize the bold, commercialized sensuality characteristic of Ramos’s work. Known for his commentary on consumer culture and the glamorization of objects, Ramos combines the cigar—symbolic of luxury and indulgence—with the female figure, creating a composition that is both satirical and seductive.

What is pop-art?
Pop Art is an art movement that began in Britain in 1955 and in the late 1950s in the U.S. It challenged traditional fine arts by incorporating imagery from popular culture, such as news, advertising, and comic books. Pop Art often isolates and recontextualizes materials, combining them with unrelated elements. The movement is more about the attitudes and ideas that inspired it than the specific art itself. Pop Art is seen as a reaction against the dominant ideas of Abstract Expressionism, bringing everyday consumer culture into the realm of fine art.
