From the 'Men in the Cities' portfolio - Original lithograph on Arches paper - Hand-signed, dated & annotated 'BAT' in pencil - Published by Edition Schellmann, Munich // Gretchen by Robert Longo, created in 1985, is a powerful lithograph from the iconic Men in the Cities portfolio. The artwork features a black-and-white depiction of a woman, Gretchen, in a dramatic, mid-motion pose. Her figure, clad in dark clothing, is sharply contrasted against a white background. Her body is contorted, with her arms bent and her head thrown back, suggesting a moment of intense emotion or energy. Longo’s use of stark contrasts and exaggerated movement in this piece captures both a sense of elegance and tension, as the subject appears suspended in time. The meticulous detail of the folds in the clothing and the fluidity of motion is characteristic of Longo's exploration of the human form in an urban setting.
