George Condo: People Are Strange

Hauser & Wirth is inaugurating its new Los Angeles gallery in West Hollywood (a former vintage automobile sales room of 1930s Spanish Colonial Revival architecture) with an exhibition of George Condo entitled “People Are Strange”. Introducing new works, Condo’s latest abstractions—named for the song by The Doors—capture the essence of Los Angeles through compositions that are at once beautiful and ugly, solemn and euphoric, and connected and entropic. Through these signature strangeties, Condo portrays the human condition and the passing of time in a universal manner with which we can all connect.
