Celebrated photographer Robert Mapplethorpe challenged the limits
of censorship and conformity, com- bining technical and formal
mastery with unexpected, often provocative content that secured his
place in history. Mapplethorpe's artistic vision helped shape the
social and cultural fabric of the 1970s and 80s and, following his
death in 1989 from AIDS, informed the political landscape of the
1990s. His photographic works continue to resonate with audiences
all over the world. Throughout his career, Mapplethorpe preserved
studio files and art from every period and vein of his production,
including student work, jewelry, sculptures, and commercial
assignments. The resulting archive is fascinating and astonishing.
With over four hundred illustrations, this volume surveys a
virtually unknown resource that sheds new light on the artist's
motivations, connections, business acumen, and tal- ent as a
curator and collector.
