Specialist note

‘I describe what I do as psychological cubism […] Picasso painted a violin from four different perspectives at one moment. I do the same with psychological states. Four of them can occur simultaneously. Like glimpsing a bus with one passenger howling over a joke they're hearing down the phone, someone else asleep, someone else crying – I'll put them all in one face.’
(G. Condo, quoted in S. Jeffries, ‘George Condo: I was delirious. Nearly died.’, The Guardian, 10th February 2014).
