He was an American pop artist who was born on October 27th, 1923 and died on September 29, 1997.
In his paintings you can easily see the influence of the characteristic comic book style and his most famous painting is "Whaam".
This person studied fine arts at Ohio State University, however he had to leave his studies for three years because of World War II. After this, he hark back to his studies and had his first one-man exposition at Calerbach Gallery in NYC.
He created some sculptures too, such as "Lamp" (1978) .
Finally he died of pneumonia in NYC (1997).
I'm a huuuuge fan of this artist, so I hope you guess who's he and enjoy his work if you decide to learn something more about him.
