About the Item
"Extrication Bond" Satirical Bond Paperwork Collage
Elaborate collage by Mickey "Kano" Kane (American, 20th century). This piece is a visually striking satirical artwork that masquerades as an ornate certificate of spiritual or existential release. With a fiery, cloud-like background and elaborate border designs, the piece mimics the grandeur of official documents while subverting their authority. The bold text “EXTRICATION BOND” arches across the composition, flanked by swirling patterns and surreal elements. At the top, a figure resembling a classical sculpture gestures upward, while the reworked phrase “In God We Trust / Got Trusts In Man” adds tension between faith, autonomy, and societal constructs. At the bottom, a mock declaration pledges the renouncement of assumptions and inherited karmic obligations, adding a layer of philosophical satire.
Signed and dated "Kano 88" in the lower right corner.
Presented in a new grey mat.
Mat size: 20"H x 28"W
Paper size: 14.5"H x 22"W
Mickey Kane, better known as "Kano," is an artist and sculptor from Santa Cruz, CA.

Mickey “Kano” Kane (American, 1939-2002) was born in Illinois and grew up in Sacramento, CA. Kane moved to the Pacific Coast and worked on mixed media panels - which he would refer to as a “Totem” – and detailed collage compositions. His collage work is generally satirical or critical in nature, frequently dealing with themes of money, capitalism, government, power, and debt. By contrast, his “Totem” sculptural work is abstract and free of direct symbolism, focusing instead on the aesthetics of the composition. Original Member, Artist’s Cooperative Gallery Artist’s Statement: The Totem is indicative of the unfolding 21st Century, graphically and metaphorically. It is neither one side nor the other, nor does one side challenge or compete with the other. Each side cooperates and thus enhances the other so that both "sides" transcend that definition into a composition revealing that, indeed, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The Totem reflects the inner harmony that all sides, whether two or two thousand, are striving to manifest in their own inimitable way.
