Mapplethorpe is notorious for his explicit images of nudity and homosexuality, but in this wonderful set of photographs he reveals the true breadth of his talent and gives us a book that can be safely left on the coffee table no matter who is visiting. Each full page photograph is a beautiully composed study of flower, receptacle, and background. There is only one word to describe the quality of light, the balance and contrast of colours, shapes, textures, and the technical proficiency with which they are captured ... Perfect. Buy it!!
