Mylo Quam (American, 1941-1996) Voyeur original painting with collage signed Hand Painted and Paper Collage. Artist name formed in paper lower left.
Mylo Quam was best known for his distinctive oil paintings which blend his strong background in mythology, the classics and religion, with a unique style of expression influenced by his notable wit, intelligence and eroticism.
Quam studied Classics at Brandeis, Boston, and New York Universities. He designed sets and costumes for theatre companies including the Actor’s Playhouse in NYC, and for ballets including the Hoving Ballet Company and the Opera Municipal de Marseilles, France. He also created illustrations for The Story of O, published by Grove Press in 1970 and created a series of lithographs in 1975 based on the poem of Rimbaud, Une Saison En Enfer (A Season in Hell).
His paintings and collages have been exhibited in many prominent galleries in New York City, San Francisco, Key West and Woodstock.
His paintings have also been exhibited internationally – he had four international shows before his death in 1996. Mylo’s solo exhibition in Haiti was the first by an American artist. Mylo Quam was also one of four artists selected to represent the United States in La Bienalle di Venezia, Italia of 1986, the oldest art festival in the world. His last exhibitions were at the prestigious CFM Gallery, NYC in 1995 and 1996.
