Robert Longo is known for his monumental photorealistic images: powerful, dynamic charcoal drawings whose virtuoso technique and visually impactful subject matter leave viewers spellbound. He models such works on photographs that apprehend dramatic situations at their climaxes.

Robert Longo resorts to existing images and hence second-hand realities, creating monumental "copies" of original black-and-white photographs whose transformation into gigantic charcoal drawings causes one to forget the originals.

The dramatic light and shadow effects in these drawings emphasize spatial depth as well as objects’ plasticity. His motifs thus seem equally real and unreal, with the deep blackness of the charcoal rubbed into the paper swallowing any and all light.
