If you wanna torture me, you put me in front of a white canvas and tie my hands behind my back and I'll go nuts. - George Condo

George Condo is known for his idiosyncratic style of figuration, characterized by broken faces, bold lines, and aggressive imagery. He often places images of the Old Masters in a new context, mixing their imagery and techniques with a modern and contemporary aesthetic. Condo aims to depict different psychological states at the same time, just as Picasso showed a violin simultaneously from four different perspectives. Condo's continuing influence is evident in the work of several contemporary artists.
