Robert Longo’s Essentials (2009) is a seven-part leporello featuring digital pigment prints that juxtapose iconic natural and symbolic imagery, from ocean waves and storm clouds to a rose, a shark, and a sleeping child. Hand-signed and numbered in an edition of 75, the artwork measures 175 x 32 cm. Its cinematic contrasts and dramatic chiaroscuro reflect Longo’s ongoing interest in power, vulnerability, and the sublime.
