Notes:
"Attention is what Condo's figures initially demand, located as they are between the grotesque and the comic, protagonists caught between comedy and tragedy. Only on closer observation does the degree emerge to which his way of painting, his composition and his concept of the figure govern the actual attraction of his paintings, and how complex and independent is his engagement with a very personal tradition." - Margrit Brehm (Thomas Klein, ed., George Condo: One Hundred Women, Ostfildern-Ruit, 2005, p. 19)
