An artist, who through his original mode of expression, has had a considerable influence on contemporary fine art for more than 30 years, since he rose to fame in 1960s as a flag-bearer for pop art. He has given the world many magnificent works of art: works that ask poignant questions of the essence of expressive art and its role in society.
