Description:
George Condo’s Clown (1989) is a striking example of the artist’s early graphic work, capturing the psychological tension and expressive distortion that would come to define his celebrated “Artificial Realism.” Executed as a color etching and aquatint on fine Hahnemühle wove paper, the print merges classical printmaking techniques with Condo’s signature blend of humor, anxiety, and abstraction.
Bears the blindstamp of legendary French master printer Aldo Crommelynck, who worked closely with Picasso and other modern giants, underscoring the technical excellence of the edition. Published by Pace Prints, New York, this limited edition of 55 showcases rich textures, bold lines, and a vivid palette that heighten the unsettling yet charismatic presence of Condo’s clown figure.
Hand-signed and numbered by the artist, Clown represents a key moment in Condo’s exploration of fragmented identity, emotional duality, and the grotesque. A rare and highly collectible work from his late-1980s period.
