Brains Trust, let's talk resale prices. Can we see these go for $20k-$25k easily? Discuss. Nobody knows what the art market will be by the time the resale agreement expires (I assume it's 2-5 years) and how many editions he makes in the meantime. |

Nobody knows what the art market will be by the time the resale agreement expires (I assume it's 2-5 years) and how many editions he makes in the meantime. Its difficult to see multiple condo releases over the next couple years but this will of course be a huge factor if hes quiet after this release then these will most likely be very good news |

AA are going to have a nightmare placing these if theyโre hoping to avoid flippers.

Dear Jerry, Can you explain why so many people love the George Condo exhibition at the New Museum? -- Aaron Holtz Dear Aaron, Among living artists, George Condo may be the most embraced by the powers that be. The Times called his New Museum show "sensational." That was just the beginning. Collectors love Condoโs paintings and buy them by the hundreds. New ones go for upwards of $450,000, and everything he makes sells. A recent New Yorker profile mentioned that Condo lives in luxury, collects Louis XVI furniture, hangs out with Kanye West, has two Upper East Side townhouses, loves expensive wines, gambles huge amounts of money and has a chauffeur-driven limousine. Curators love Condo, too. Heโs one of the few painterly painters included in our usually painting-bereft biennials. Iโm thrilled that the New Museum is having a success, and I admire the curators of the show, Laura Hoptman and Ralph Rugoff; however, to me, Condo is a zombie -- a very limited, ironic, art-about-art artist whose work sounds the same visually derivative, technically generic notes over and over again. He provides almost no internal or psychic depth, instead giving people a sense of being in on some art-world in-jokes about style, tradition, kitsch and appropriation. The top floor of Condoโs show is the better of the two, because it blatantly imparts his deep content. More than 50 portraits hang here, floor to ceiling and wall to wall. Your eyes dart from one to another, checking out his repertoire of creepy creatures, loony goons, naked ladies and art-world knockoffs. Many of these pictures look like the sort of neo-surreal work that was typical in the East Village in the 1980s, or the cartoony paintings of Kenny Scharf. A few are good, like Spanish Head Composition and a number of earlier, denser small works. But mostly you donโt have to look at any one painting here for more than a few seconds. Thatโs all they demand. People always say Condo is a "virtuoso painter." The second-floor display gives the lie to this claim. Condo is an enthusiastic confident drawer who paints in high-keyed funky color with flourish. But he is simply deft and dexterous, aping R. Crumb and Philip Guston without any of the gutsiness or exposed inner life of these artists. Mainly you get the same fiendish figures in various styles. Condo does have a feel for grotesque in human physiognomy. I often find myself at cocktail parties, fantasizing that the person Iโm talking to is some sort of Condo monster. Yet because Condoโs monsters turn into a cast of characters, they are defanged. Any idea of the grotesque is replaced by burlesque and shtick. Condoโs is well-done work for a time still jittery about painting, weaned on idiotic ideas that itโs somehow suspect, that it can only be good if it makes jokes or comments about itself. This sort of deconstructionism has been done to death, and is so familiar and enfeebled that it can barely lift the gun to its own head. At his best, Condo is not much more than Koons-lite, a safe Schnabel, a more ingratiating Richard Prince. But thereโs a wonderful surprise ending to this show. Downstairs from Condoโs show at the New Museum is the radically fabulous survey of Lynda Benglis -- whose work from 1969 to 1975 is so fecund, fresh, relevant and prescient that she saves the day, letting you see that she predicts numerous contemporary artists from Urs Fischer and Isa Genzken to Rachel Harrison and Franz West. Among the mounds, glow-in-the-dark wall protuberances, and Mardi Gras-like peacock headdresses, donโt miss the large bronze, curved, double-headed, and veined dildo nailed to the wall, titled Smile. I wore one (the smile, not the dildo) when I left the New Museum.
Thank you for posting.
An entertaining and insightful critique by Jerry Saltz of the 2011 New Museum show, George Condo: Mental States, as well as of the artist's lifestyle, market and collector/institutional appeal.
How good is the second sentence in the penultimate paragraph? Underlining added for ease of reference:
Condoโs is well-done work for a time still jittery about painting, weaned on idiotic ideas that itโs somehow suspect, that it can only be good if it makes jokes or comments about itself.

Wish I had come up with that turn of phrase. [Note to self: Work harder.]
And let's not ignore the cleverness of the final paragraph:
Saltz embraces the trope of ending a piece on a high note, by writing something uplifting or otherwise positive.
But at the same time, he subverts that trope. All of his praise is directed, not at the primary subject matter, but towards the exhibition of an entirely different artist, Lynda Benglis.
Whether merited or not, such an insult to Condo was beautifully crafted.
