Enlevo de Miss Europa

Skapinakis, Nikias1973

This painting belongs to a series entitled ‘Metamorphoses of Zeus’, that Nikias Skapinakis developed during the 1970s. In this case, symbolic themes in the history of art - such as mythological painting or the female nude - are desacralized and trivialized through visual exploration similar to the graphic aesthetics of the poster, with a clear pop art influence.
