René Magritte, La Grande Guerre, 1965 © D.R.

« George Condo a peint une saisissante parade d'êtres tragi-comiques [...] qui exsudent une étrangeté inquiétante et profondément irrésistible. Réalisés à partir de fragments de mémoire d'histoire de l'art, ces portraits mélangent en tout gaîté des éléments à la fois magnifiques et grotesques, provoquant une sorte de coup de fouet mental qui remet en cause la prise que de telles catégories ont sur notre perception. »
(in catalogue George Condo: Mental States, New Museum, New York; Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam; Hayward Gallery, Londres, 2011-2012, Rudolf Rugoff, The Mental States of America, p. 11)
