NEW YORK NOSTALGIA


 During "install" recently I saw this foto up on the wall and knew that it was familiar and then assumed it was a recent work- a reconstruction based on Robert Longos "men in cities" series from 1979-80 in New York. It turns out they are from Longo and are the drawing which he based the large charcoal or graphite drawings on. What a score!

Annelize send me a cool link regarding a story on fotos taken in 1941 and 1942 of New York City in color
from the Daily MAIL in the UK
