Lithographs in black and grey with embossing and extensive hand-coloring in paint on Arches wove paper - Dates - Jules: 1982, Gretchen: 1983 - Unique hand colored proof (there is an edition of 45 copies of this lithograph without the hand coloring in paint) - Hand signed (Jules in ink, Gretchen in pencil) - Gretchen numbered AP /10, Jules unnumbered - Printed by Brooke Alexander Inc., New York - Published by Maurice Sanchez, Derriere l'Etoile Studios, Long Island City, NY - IMAGE SIZE: 76.2 x 38.2 cm - PAPER SIZE: 93.0 x 53.5 cm - FRAME SIZE: 112.0 x 72.5 cm // Robert Longo’s Gretchen & Jules (Men in the Cities) are iconic lithographs that capture the tension and dynamism of contemporary urban life. Created in 1982 (Jules) and 1983 (Gretchen), these works feature dramatically posed figures rendered in black, grey, and vibrant hand-painted colors on Arches wove paper. Jules is set against a striking red background, his body arched in an expressive, almost explosive motion. Gretchen contrasts with a yellow backdrop, her figure caught mid-twist, exuding energy and defiance. These unique hand-colored proofs differ from the standard edition of 45 lithographs, adding individuality to the works. Both are signed (Jules in ink, Gretchen in pencil), highlighting their authenticity as dynamic representations of Longo’s influential Men in the Cities series.

What is Performance Art?
Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
