George Condo

Explore a selection of distinctive artworks by George Condo at Lougher Contemporary, celebrated for their fusion of traditional portraiture with abstract, surreal elements. Known for his distinctive style that blends classical European painting techniques with modern abstract and surrealist elements, Condo’s works challenge perceptions and evoke thought-provoking reactions. His works often feature distorted, grotesque, yet oddly familiar figures, which he refers to as "psychological cubism." These figures are typically rendered in a manner that mixes cartoonish characteristics with the traditional portrait styles of Old Masters, creating a unique tension between the past and present, the beautiful and the bizarre.
