This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Bold, playful, and bursting with cultural energy, Minnie and Mickey, Big Kiss for the Big Apple is a high-octane celebration of pop iconography in the heart of Manhattan.
In this striking mixed media canvas, Patrick Cornée reimagines the world’s most beloved cartoon couple as street-savvy city explorers, cruising through a hyper-saturated Times Square in a gleaming white Jaguar. Their expressions—mischievous and cool—hint at a romantic escapade unfolding amid the chaos of urban glamour. Cornée’s background is a layered mosaic of luxury logos, street art symbols, and Big Apple references, including signs for Rolex, Hermès, Dior, Gucci, and even the ubiquitous “I ❤️ NY.”The result is a dazzling clash of consumerism, nostalgia, and modernity, rendered in vibrant brushwork, graffiti-style typography, and crisp graphic detailing.
Neon colours glow beneath an urban sky, capturing both the magic and madness of New York. At once nostalgic and defiantly contemporary, Minnie and Mickey, Big Kiss for the Big Apple reclaims the innocence of classic animation and infuses it with street-style swagger.
This remarkable mixed media on canvas is now available through Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
