Condo Painting (1999)
he is chasing 'big red' quite insightful
George Condo:
aking of George Condo, I went to see Condo Painting, a 90-minute film on the artist by John McNaughton, a real Hollywood director who made Mad Dog and Glory and Portrait of a Serial Killer. The movie traces the evolution, over a period of months and through at least three almost-complete reworkings, of a single painting, called Big Red. If you want to know about Condo and his work, this is the place to start. Condo is charming, and looks kind of like a brunette David Spade.
Condo's musings on his trademark "antipodal" creatures -- most recently, a bug-eyed, bulbous-nosed guy with a thick handlebar mustache -- are wackily interesting. He considers himself a kind of clairvoyant who can't help but to channel these beings into our world. Clearly, George is the art world's leading contemporary Surrealist and his paintings are essentially glorified -- and glorious -- doodles.
The film also contains some of the last-ever footage of William Burroughs and Allen Ginsburg -- Ginsburg is eerily seen posing in a black outfit while Condo paints a life-sized skeleton right on it -- worth the price of admission in itself. Making such monographic movies of contemporary artists is a great idea, even if their potential audience is minuscule. Condo Painting is due to be released by October Films this fall.
HAppy 2008!
