Harry N. Abrams, New York
1st edition, 1986
30 x 23 cm, 109 pages
A rarely seen edition of Robert Longo’s famous Men in the cities, a series of larger-than-life black and white drawings of men in business suits and women in smart office & cocktail attire, all contorsioned in a strange last dance. Closed eyes, distorted bodies, wild hair and a sense of impending doom unfold in these unbeatable works. The book is exclusively composed of the drawings created between 1977 and 1983 and only gives a brief glimpse into the photographs Longo took of real models to make the drawings (part of the models famously include Cindy Sherman and Jeffrey Deitch among others). In great condition with minor signs of age.
