Robert Longo's "Men in the Cities" series features large-scale charcoal drawings that depict sharply dressed individuals frozen in dynamic and often contorted poses. These figures, seemingly caught in moments of intense movement, convey a sense of both vitality and vulnerability. Longo's meticulous attention to detail and use of stark contrasts contribute to the dramatic impact of each composition. "Men in the Cities" captures the frenetic energy, emotional tension, and existential angst of urban existence, making it one of Longo's most iconic and influential bodies of work within the realm of contemporary art.
