Signed Mixed Media Work on Graph Paper by George Condos (Attributed)
This item is an original work of art created using mixed media on a distinct grid-patterned substrate, specifically graph paper. The piece features expressive, gestural applications of paint, including thick white-pink impasto outlines and translucent washes of gold, brown, and dark pigments. The composition appears semi-abstract, hinting at human or organic forms with a heavy focus on texture and layering. A clear signature in the lower-left corner reads 'Condos' followed by the date '1995'. The use of graph paper as a medium suggests a contemporary or post-modern style, contrasting rigid mathematical structure with fluid, visceral brushwork. There is evidence of minor paper aging and yellowing consistent with mid-1990s ephemeral materials. The application of the paint is assertive, showing the physical movement of the artist's hand. The piece is currently positioned within a frame or behind glass, as evidenced by the reflections of the photographer. This specific combination of materials, date, and signature style strongly suggests an attribution to the contemporary artist George Condos, known for his psychologically charged and distorted portraits.
