George Condo

b. 1957, Concord, NH, USA. George Condo is a New York-based artist who has occupied a central position in the landscape of American painting for nearly forty years. Populated by a cast of characters whose bulging eyes, bulbous cheeks, proliferating limbs and hideous over- or under-bites mark them apart as a singular species, Condo’s art is profoundly original. Condo’s paintings often fuse cartoon figures and human forms into a state of metamorphosis, each simultaneously reflecting a plethora of emotions and gestures. (Courtesy of Simon Lee Gallery, London).
