From "Men in the Cities" series - Set of Original lithographs - Signed, dated and numbered in pencil // Edmund & Gretchen by Robert Longo is a lithograph from his iconic Men in the Cities series, created in 1985. The piece features two figures in stark, high-contrast black and white, each frozen in dramatic, contorted poses. Edmund, dressed in a suit, leans back sharply as if struck, while Gretchen, wearing a form-fitting dress, tilts forward with her head thrown back, creating a sense of tension and motion. The series is known for its commentary on urban life, capturing moments of heightened emotion and existential struggle. Longo’s photorealistic style enhances the dynamic energy and emotive power of the artwork.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
