meet mark mothersbaugh —
myope, singer, visual artist, art rock revolutionary, tinkerer, songwriter,
polymath, visionary.
Born in Akron and best known as co-founder of the New Wave band DEVO,
Mothersbaugh has been making raucous art since before the band’s
inception. His work delivers vital social commentary while exploding
musical and visual boundaries.
An award winning composer, his credits include Wes Anderson films
(Moonrise Kingdom, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic),
as well as Pee Wee’s Playhouse and the hugely successful Rugrats franchise.
This summer, MOCA Cleveland is partnering with Akron Art Museum to
present Myopia, the first retrospective of Mothersbaugh’s work
(May 27–August 28, 2016).
Myopia Mania is coming to Cleveland this summer.
Catch it.
