What do Robert Longo paintings look like?
Search: robert longo
Why: In the groundbreaking 1993 mini-series Wild Palms, Harry compares a man's forced removal from a restaurant to "one of those Robert Longo paintings."
Answer: He is probably talking about this one, which is the cover for Glenn Braca's 1991 album The Ascension:

The More You Know: Longo directed that Keanu Reeves movie Johnny Mnemonic (1995). The 6 parts of Wild Palms were directed by 4 different people, 1 of whom also directed Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey, also starring Keanu Reeves, and also one of my favorite movies ever. (Another directed Point Break, also starring Keanu Reeves, also pretty good.)
