Description: Untitled (Eric) revisits Robert Longo’s groundbreaking series Men in the Cities, an iconic body of work that became a cultural touchstone in the late 1970s and early 1980s. These images of sharply dressed men and women caught in contorted poses—frozen between tension, elegance, and collapse—quickly came to define the Pictures Generation and reshaped the visual language of contemporary art.

This edition captures the dynamism and intensity of the original graphite drawings, achieved through a meticulous silkscreen process. Layered grayscale separations create a floating, hyperreal grain effect that mirrors the physicality of Longo’s studio practice. The result is a work that resonates with both the raw energy of punk rock dance and the cinematic drama of film noir, a perfect embodiment of 80s New York aesthetics.
