About George Condo

George Condo (born 1957, Concord, New Hampshire) is an American visual artist whose practice spans painting, drawing, sculpture, and printmaking. He studied music theory and art history at the University of Massachusetts Lowell before establishing his career in New York City, where he has lived and worked for decades. The Library of Congress associates his field of activity with Pop art and American painting. Condo's work is held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Tate, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, among other institutions. With over 1,400 works documented in auction records, Condo maintains a substantial and active presence in the international art market, making his work a frequent point of encounter for collectors, appraisers, and auction specialists.

Common works and media

Condo's documented output includes oil and acrylic paintings on canvas, works on paper in ink, graphite, and pastel, sculptures in various materials, and limited-edition prints such as lithographs and screen prints. His paintings range from intimate compositions to large-scale canvases. Prints and editions are widely represented in auction catalogs and provide a common entry point for collectors. Works on paper and smaller paintings appear frequently in mid-range auction sessions, while major canvases are typically offered in Post-War and Contemporary Art sales at international auction houses.

Market and appraisal context

George Condo maintains a deep and liquid auction market with 1,020 documented lots in Appraisily records (764 with published prices), spanning 25 years of continuous trading from April 2001 through April 2026. Activity is concentrated at the top tier of the auction world: Christie's, Sotheby's, and Phillips account for the strongest results, with Bonhams, Artcurial, Hampel Fine Art Auctions, and Rago Arts and Auction Center providing mid-tier liquidity. The 12-month trading volume (66 lots in the most recent year, down from 83 the prior year) indicates sustained but slightly contracting market activity. Price dispersion is exceptionally wide: from $10 for small prints at regional houses to HKD 48,291,000 (approximately USD 6.2 million) for a major canvas at Christie's Hong Kong. The median priced lot sits at approximately $60,000, with the interquartile range spanning roughly $15,000 to $221,000. This stratification reflects a clear tier structure—limited-edition prints and offset lithographs at the low end ($40–$1,100), works on paper and small paintings in the mid-range ($5,000–$50,000), and significant canvases at major houses achieving six- and seven-figure results.

Appraisal caveats

  • Specific price ranges and realized prices are not cited here; consult comparable auction records for current market data.
  • Auction results for Condo are numerous (1,400+ documented lots) and span a wide range depending on medium, size, and period.
  • The HKD 48,291,000 result for 'Prescription for the Clinically Normal' at Christie's Hong Kong (September 2024) is a significant outlier; it should not be used as a direct comparable for typical Condo works.
  • At least three recent lots are described as 'attributed to' George Condo rather than authenticated. Attributed works carry inherent uncertainty and are not equivalent to verified catalog entries.
