George Condo: The Mad and the Lonely

By George Condo

Probing the many sites and sources of inspiration for Condo's vivid, paranoiac paintings and totemic sculptures

This catalog documents Condo's (born 1957) exhibition The Mad and The Lonely, the site-specific installation at the DESTE Foundation's Project Space at the Slaughterhouse on the island of Hydra in Greece, which included a number of small-scale paintings and sculptures selected from the artist's long career and recontextualized in the storied space. With a vivid 40-page leporello, this square hardcover book includes a text by Dakis Joannou and an essay by Condo himself that probes the many sites and sources of inspiration for The Mad and The Lonely.
