ENEAS CAPALBO
Fake Condos


January 22—February 14, 2011
Reception: Saturday, January 22, 6-8 p.m.





Eneas Capalbo celebrates the tenth anniversary of his fake George Condo series, while the artist in question stages his own survey just blocks away at the New Museum. Emeas pays tribute to the virtuosity and brushstrokes of his predecessor's imaginary portraits in all-too-real time, prompting the New York Times in 2001 to challenge the provenance of the works themselves. So perhaps, more than anything, these fake Condo paintings are a call to complicity; an open rejection of the dictatorial nature creation demands. They're funny, too.
