Young Girl In The Wild, 2018
Wax crayon on paper
30 x 22 in 76.2 x 55.9 cm
In this 2018 work, George Condo explores the intersection of innocence and psychological complexity through his signature style of psychological cubism. Rendered in wax crayon on paper, the composition presents a distorted portrait of a young girl, her features fragmented and reassembled in ways that simultaneously evoke childhood naivety and existential unease. The waxy medium creates rich, saturated colors with a tactile quality, while allowing for both bold gestural marks and delicate linear details that define the figure's unconventional anatomy. This intimate work on paper exemplifies Condo's ongoing investigation into the human condition, presenting beauty and distortion as inseparable elements of contemporary portraiture. The modest scale and direct application of crayon reveal the artist's immediate creative process, offering collectors a glimpse into his spontaneous mark-making. Works on paper from this period demonstrate Condo's masterful command across media and represent an accessible entry point into his celebrated oeuvre.
