Catalogue accompanying an exhibition by the same name at Daniel Templon Gallery, Paris, 1990. Of these charcoal drawings and bronze sculptures of black American flags, Presca Ahn writes: "Longo is fascinated by the iconography of power and of violence, and it is certainly true that his more politicized works speak directly to the major anxieties that grip the popular imagination. His most overt engagement with America s legacy is the Black Flags series of distressed and blackened American flags of which the large and impressive cast paper print shown here is most iconic". Uncommon, in very good condition.
