Many connoisseurs of art do not recognize pin-ups, believing that in a poster with a half-naked beauty there is nothing of real art. But looking at the work of many artists, for example, the drawings of the metal artist Jan Meininghaus, who mixes pin-up with rock and roll aesthetics, science fiction and much more, you feel that, whatever it is, the author gives all the best with their creating one hundred percent.
Jan Meininghaus is a tricky guy in many ways. His dazzling beauties are capable of destroying demons! At least. That's right - Death of a Demon - is the name of the heavy metal band that Ian currently plays with. In general, since 1989, he has been spinning in the world of rock music, so it is not surprising that many of his works are saturated with aesthetics. rock and roll.
There is no doubt about the artistic skills of Jan Meininghaus: if not pin-up, then illustrations, comics, street art, pop art, any underground culture. The modern artist must be comprehensively developed. Ian typically spends 12-16 hours a day working on something on this list, then spends time with a girlfriend, goes to the movies, or blows dust off his collection of vintage high-power cars. His works, especially rock and roll seducers, they look spectacular on skateboards, T-shirts, even motorcycle helmets.
Jan Meininghaus lives and works in Essen, Germany. This place seems to him rather pathetic, so he uses every opportunity to travel with his portfolio to cities - centers of concentration of contemporary art, such as Berlin, London, Los Angeles.
We have already written about many pin-up artists (let's call them artists, despite the opinions of the debaters). The most striking material, of course, is about Valery Barykin's Soviet pin-up, which makes you look at many of the calls on Soviet posters from the other side. Somewhat lose to him in originality, but by no means in frankness are robotic women, sexy mermaids and other heroines of the Japanese Hajime Sarayama.
Jan Meininghaus's website includes his illustrations, pin-up paintings and much more.
