Mickey is a household gloss on canvas painting by Damien Hirst executed in 2012.

Hirst was invited by Disney to create an artwork inspired by Mickey Mouse and this was his response.

The work was auctioned at Christie's, London, on 13 February 2014 in aid of Kids Company, a charity Hirst has long supported, fetching £902,500.

The auction lot notes quote Hirst as commenting:[2] The thing about Mickey is that even though he’s gone through so many shifts in form and association, he’s timeless.

I love that the imagery is so powerful that it only takes twelve different coloured dots to create something so instantly recognisable.This article about a 21st-century painting is a stub.
