George Condo. Painting Reconfigured

Working closely with the artist, writer and art historian Simon Baker has combined biographical, chronological and thematic approaches to survey George Condo’s work and career to date. An introductory essay on Condo’s contradictory nature and a chapter exploring his early career are followed by thematic chapters that look at the years from 1984 to the present, tracing Condo’s different systematic approaches to the language of painting, exploring his relationship to the concept of abstraction, and probing the darker side of his psychological iconography.
