Robert LongoCharcoal Volume 2

Format: Hardback

Condition: New — £51.25
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

"A sequel to the 2011 publication, Charcoal Volume 2 presents the charcoal drawings of American artist Robert Longo (born 1953) from 2012 to the present. This large-format, elaborately designed catalog―printed on natural paper using a tritone process and bound in half linen―is a continuation of the first volume. It includes his recent series from the past 10 years such as Death from Above (2012–16), Hungry Ghosts (2015–17) and the Destroyer Cycle (2016–20). Together, they form a comprehensive compendium of this central oeuvre by the legendary New York artist, who was a key figure in founding the Pictures Generation in the 1980s and also directed some of the most iconic music videos of the decade. In this new catalog, essays by Tim Griffin and Haley Mellin address the existential questions of our time that are at the heart of these new, large-scale, hyperrealistic drawings: war, violence, capitalism, the rising division of American society and the possibilities of political protest and individual freedom in the face of the overwhelming power of the media."
