Pencil on paper - Unique drawing // Mel Ramos’s Peek a Boo Barbie (1995) is a unique pencil drawing that features a stylized female figure framed within the outline of a keyhole, a common motif in Ramos’s work that emphasizes the voyeuristic nature of the image. The figure, which recalls the iconic Barbie doll, is depicted with exaggerated proportions and a playful pose, her hands raised to her head as she gazes directly at the viewer. The simple pencil lines create a minimalist yet impactful composition, underscoring Ramos’s ongoing exploration of pop culture icons and the themes of beauty, objectification, and desire. The keyhole framing reinforces the idea of the subject being watched, evoking a sense of curiosity and playfulness.

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.
