The KiMo Theatre, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a historic gem renowned for its stunning architectural style and cultural significance. Built in 1927, the theater is a prime example of Pueblo Deco, a unique blend of Art Deco and Pueblo Revival architectural styles. The name "KiMo" is derived from the Tiwa language, meaning "mountain lion" or "king of its kind," a tribute to the region's Native American heritage. With its ornate facade featuring Native American motifs, the theater stands as a testament to the fusion of cultural influences that define New Mexico.
The KiMo Theatre originally opened as a movie palace and performance venue. It quickly became a centerpiece of Albuquerque's cultural scene, hosting a wide variety of events, including vaudeville acts, live performances, and the latest Hollywood films...
About Mike Savad
My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...

Not a fan of this city BUT this is a fantastic depiction of the historic Kimo Theater, its vibrant Art Deco architecture standing out beautifully! The image brings the scene to life with a vintage feel, thanks to the classic cars and the lively people walking on the street. The bright, bold signage of the Kimo and Kiva Cafe, paired with the retro style, instantly transports you to a bygone era. There's a great sense of nostalgia in the colors and details, from the awning of the Kiva Cafe to the advertising on the buildings. It's a beautiful and dynamic scene, perfectly capturing the energy and charm of a mid-20th century setting!
