Artist Robert Longo tells us about his work and life in his own words.

Longo became known as a leading protagonist of the "Pictures Generation," working across drawing, photography, painting, sculpture, performance, and film to make provocative critiques of the anesthetizing and seductive effects of capitalism, mediatized wars, and the cult of history in the United States.

For our Robert Longo profile, The Artist Profile Archive filmed his 2014 shows, Gang of Cosmos at Metro Pictures and Strike the Sun at Petzel Gallery, as well as the 2017 shows, Let the Frame of Things Disjoint at Ropac London and The Destroyer Cycle at Metro Pictures. In addition to filming his Brooklyn Museum exhibit, Proof, Longo was interviewed in his New York City studio in December 2017.
