Abstract Geometric by Mimo (American, active 1970s), circa 1970s. Silkscreen/serigraph on textured prismatic vinyl, signed and marked A.P.

Mike Mozart, affectionately known in the art world as MiMo, is a whirlwind of creativity whose career stretches over three dynamic decades. Bursting onto the scene as a street artist in the rebellious 1970s, his vivid urban style planted seeds that grew into a rich legacy of illustration and design. Transitioning from graffiti to galleries, Mozart illustrated over 100 children's books and crafted hundreds of licensed character products for giants like Disney and the Muppets, blending whimsy with commercial savvy. His knack for invention shines in his creation of more than 2,000 products — from whimsical seasonal toys to clever lawn and garden innovations — many marketed under the "Michael Wolfe" brand. Behind the scenes, MiMo was the ghostly creative hand behind early designs for pop icon Alec Monopoly, including the legendary Monopoly Man. Not one to be confined to traditional media, Mozart was a YouTube pioneer, broadcasting live from the Occupy Wall Street rallies and amassing over a billion views through his beloved channels JeepersMedia and TheToyChannel, where he charmed audiences with quirky toy reviews. Whether tagging walls or designing toys, Mozart's eclectic spirit and relentless innovation make him a true icon of American art and pop culture.
ABSTRACT GEOMETRIC by Mimo, a striking serigraph from the 1970s, captivates with its brown amorphous shapes dancing within and around a tapestry of sharp squares and triangles. This unique piece, measuring 24x24 inches, is printed on prismatic vinyl, which lends a mesmerizing sheen that shifts with the light, creating an interactive visual experience. Signed and numbered as part of an artist's proof, it carries the charm of a forgotten era, having been stored in a retired Manhattan art gallery for over 50 years. The rich history behind this artwork invites collectors to not only embrace its aesthetic value but to also cherish the stories woven into its past.
