George Condo’s Pastels exhibition, spanning Sprüth Magers and Hauser & Wirth in New York, explores his inventive use of pastel to depict the complexities of the human psyche. At Hauser & Wirth, fractured "bizarre characters" emerge in puzzle-like portraits, while Sprüth Magers showcases abstract, color-rich compositions and expressive black-and-white pastels. Across both venues, Condo’s works capture fluidity, fragmentation, and emotional depth through bold gestures and color mastery.
