Insane Clown, 2019

Etching with drypoint on paper

22 x 20 in 55.9 x 50.8 cm

Edition

Edition of 30

This etching presents one of Condo's signature grotesque figures, a clown rendered with unsettling distortions that blur the line between humor and horror. The artist employs both etching and drypoint techniques to create rich tonal variations and aggressive mark-making across the composition. Bold linear strokes define the contorted facial features, while areas of cross-hatching and shadow add psychological depth to the disturbing portrait. The monochromatic palette emphasizes the technical virtuosity of the printmaking process, allowing the scratched and incised lines to command full attention. Condo's clown imagery has become among his most sought-after subjects, exemplifying his concept of psychological cubism where multiple emotional states coexist simultaneously. This 2019 work demonstrates the artist's continued exploration of the carnivalesque and the uncanny, themes that have established him as a leading contemporary figurative artist. The intimate scale and exceptional print quality make this piece particularly appealing to collectors seeking museum-caliber works on paper from an artist whose paintings command significant attention at international auctions.
