Misko’s Distinctive Portrayal of Las Vegas After Dark

If you have spent time in this city, you have probably seen his work without knowing whose it was. Misko paints Las Vegas as it looks after dark: neon tubing, marquee bulbs and the signs the city built its name on, in bold, saturated colour and at a scale that can hold an entire wall.

Commissioned Works and Corporate Collections

His portfolio includes paintings and murals commissioned by the City of Las Vegas, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, MTV and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. His work is held in the corporate collections of Saks Fifth Avenue, the Howard Hughes Corporation, Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino, Cirque du Soleil, The Molasky Group of Companies and Maccioni Restaurant Group, and in private collections around the world.

Las Vegas CityLife and Las Vegas Weekly have both named him Best Local Artist. He studied at the University of Southern California.

Community Donations and Local Impact

He is just as well known at home for what he gives away. Misko has donated works to causes across Southern Nevada, including the Nevada Cancer Institute, the Neon Museum, Keep Memory Alive, Shade Tree, Bishop Gorman College Preparatory High School, Olive Crest, First Friday and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Longstanding Friendship Drives the Exhibition

Jerry and Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management, have been good friends for many years, and bringing his work into G2E week was an easy decision.

“G2E brings the whole industry to Las Vegas, and most people see the city from a booth, a ballroom and a taxi,” said Stephen Crystal. “Jerry has spent his career painting the Las Vegas that locals actually love: the neon, the marquees, the signs. He’s been a good friend for a long time, and I can’t think of a better welcome to this city than having his work on the wall while we talk.”

Shared Space Without Panels

The paintings will be on show at the Open Office on Monday, the last quiet day before the show floor opens, and again at the party on Tuesday evening, where operators, regulators, suppliers and tribal nations share one room and nobody is on a panel.
