"Both George Condo and Audemars Piguet occupy rarefied space in their respective worlds. Condo, an artist whose career spans over four decades, is celebrated for developing a unique visual language that combines elements of Cubism, Surrealism, and Pop Art. His fractured, expressive portraits have made him one of the most significant figures in contemporary painting, and his influence stretches from fine art institutions to the world of fashion and music."
"Audemars Piguet, meanwhile, remains a benchmark of innovation within Swiss Haute Horlogerie. With over a century of independent watchmaking heritage, the brand has continually pushed the limits of design and mechanical engineering. From the revolutionary Royal Oak to the avant-garde Code 11.59, AP's creations embody the balance between technical mastery and aesthetic experimentation. This rumored collaboration-or perhaps private commission-between Condo and Audemars Piguet is a natural meeting point for two creative philosophies"
George Condo was photographed wearing what appears to be a one-of-one Audemars Piguet Code 11.59 Tourbillon following a social media post by gallerist Easy Otabor. No official collaboration between Condo and Audemars Piguet has been announced, yet the watch's artistic cues and bespoke character suggest a private commission. The timepiece represents a fusion of contemporary art and Swiss haute horlogerie, highlighting Audemars Piguet's engagement with creative expression and Condo's multidisciplinary cultural influence. Condo's visual language draws on Cubism, Surrealism, and Pop Art. Audemars Piguet's century-long heritage balances technical mastery and aesthetic experimentation.
