The art of George Condo (b. Concord, New Hampshire, 1957; lives and works in New York) involves a broad variety of media such as painting, drawing, and sculpture as well as collaborative projects with other artists. Condo came to New York in the late 1970s to work as a screen printer in Andy Warhol's factory and join the East Village arts scene. Since the 1980s, he has defined a distinctive visual language in his paintings and drawings. Based on a close study of classical painting, he has evolved a style that combines a lively sense of humor with intimations of abysmal depths. He paints figures composed of fragmentary faces and geometric shapes, with unmistakable references to Cubism and Surrealism as well as Pop Art and comic strips. Figurative painting and an unconventional approach to the classical genre of the portrait are always at the center of his work. By toying with the interplay of abstraction and figuration and blending elements from high culture and the world of everyday life, Condo defies generic hierarchies within painting. He draws inspiration from art history, Greek myth, and the traditions of the grotesque and caricature. In paintings and sculptures, Condo explores the expressive potentials of human physiognomy and reflects on themes such as economic excess, insanity, and personal vanities, which he visualizes as social frames of mind.

Essay by Ralph Rugoff In this journey through the last 30 years of Condo's distinguished career as an artist, early sketches and studies accompany their now classic transformations into paintings, offering readers a glimpse into condo's wickedly trippy world. Whether it's visions of Lucy Ricardo and Gomer Pyle, visual interpretations of the melodies of John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk, or a sci-fi universe inhabited by his iconic pod people, this work represents his distinctive and widely renowned style. 100 full-colour reproductions.

Straddling the line between comedy and tragedy, the grotesque and the beautiful, the rich pictorial inventions of George Condo have made him one of the most inventive painters of his generation and one whose work has become increasingly influential. Published to coincide with a major exhibition in the USA and Europe, this book surveys Condo's career, focusing on his portrait paintings but also including a selection of sculptural busts made in precious substances such as gold and bronze. It will be organised thematically, exploring the artist's relationship to art history, as well as the shifting responses in his work to popular culture and contemporary society. Publication is due in February 2011. Co-inciding exhibitions are showing at: New Museum, New York (January - May 2011); Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam (June - September 2011); Hayward Gallery, London (October 2011 - January 2012); Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt (February - May 2012). A set of George Condo: Mental States playing cards is also available at 12.50, ISBN 978-1-85332-296-9, Hayward Publishing.

"American painter George Condo, who was born in New Hampshire in 1957, has occupied a prominent position in the Western art scene from Cologne to New York for more than twenty years. He regularly succeeds in surprising viewers with his grotesque, often tradition-conscious, and almost classically Surrealistic paintings. Condo's own models and partners in dialogue range from Goya and Velazqaez to Picasso and Warhol, in whose Factory he earned this living for a brief period in the early eighties. Along with Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Julian Schnabel, he was instrumental in the international revival of painting after 1982. This retrospective publication focuses on Condo's favorite subject: women. Featuring some fifty paintings, forty drawings, and five sculptures, the book presents a motif that appears in various forms in his art - in nudes, portraits, and art-historical collages. Apart from Picasso and Mattise, no other twentieth-century artist has dealt with this theme as intensely and imaginatively as George Condo."--BOOK JACKET.
