We love the work of George Condo!

Thank you for this exquisite portrait of the artist and his practice!
・・・
George Condo (b. 1957, Concord, New Hampshire) is one of the defining painters of late 20th- and 21st-century figuration, known for constructing psychologically fractured faces that draw on Old Master painting, Cubism, caricature, and American popular culture.

He studied art history and music theory, worked briefly for Andy Warhol in New York, and later developed what he called “Artificial Realism,” a mode that treats the invented, the grotesque, and the mentally unstable as legitimate subjects of portraiture.

Rather than depicting likeness in any conventional sense, Condo’s portraits often stage the human subject as divided, theatrical, and multiple at once. That tension, between elegance and distortion, comedy and dread, is central to his importance.

Across painting and drawing, he reworked the legacies of European portraiture through a contemporary psychological lens, producing figures that feel less observed than internally exposed.
