Marilyn Minter (b. 1948) is an American artist celebrated for her provocative paintings, photographs, and videos that explore beauty, glamour, and the female body. Rising to prominence in the 1990s, her hyperreal images—often depicting subjects through water, steam, or glitter—challenge the boundaries between high fashion, desire, and critique. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is held in major collections, including The Museum of Modern Art, Whitney Museum of American Art, and Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.
