Catalogue Note
"I guess you can say I manufacture the characters in the same way a playwright comes up with the lives of characters... Jean Louis and Rodrigo are serial characters. They live out a life that I never could. They live out a life while I'm in a room painting. They're experiencing life for me." - George Condo
