Mick Micheyl Art
Mick Micheyl was born in Lyon and had a busy and rewarding artistic career as a singer, producer, reviewer, metal sculptor and artist. After having received training at the Ecole Lyonnaise des Beaux-Arts, she became a painter and decorator in the theatre but then commenced a career in the musical activities of a theatrical troupe. She won the ABC competition in Paris in 1949 with a song, Le Marchand de Poésie, which she composed herself. She then performed in many cabarets: L'Échelle de Jacob, Harlequin and Liberty's. In the 1950s, she was one of the most important French cabaret singers of that period. One of her titles, Un Gamin de Paris, became one of the French standards and also performed by Yves Montand and Robert Clary in the United States. In the 1960s, she turned to producing television shows. It was in 1974 that she decided to completely change direction to become a metal sculptor. After her career came to an end, several of her pieces were acquired by museums and private institutions. In 2009, an exhibition was organized as her last, in Paris. She took this decision because she had partial loss of sight due to some accidents in the creative process of her art. She died in the Burgundy region in 2019 after a stay in a care home. The country grieved her passing and now collects her art which lives on.
