George Condo’s Jazz Inspired Paintings at Spruth Magers, Los Angeles

 HuffPost , Painter’s Table – via Huffington Post June 8, 2016. Review of George Condo’s  music inspired paintings at Spruth Magers, Los Angeles. Condo arranges fragments of faces and geometrical forms in the same vein as great jazz musicians deconstruct well known meolodies by “turning them inside out.” We see iconic images referncing Picasso, Goya and Monet in these Condo paintings, deconstructed in much the same way the  John Coltrane plays Rogers and Hammerstein or Thelonious Monk plays Ellington.
