Philosopher Felix Guattari
wrote “there is then a very
specific ‘Condo effect’ which
separates you from all the
painters you seem to
reinterpret. You sacrifice
everything to this effect,
particularly pictorial
structure, which you
systematically destroy, thus
removing a protective
guardrail, a from of reference
which might reassure the
viewer, who is denied access
to a stable set of meanings”
