This definitive, full-color reflection of Mapplethorpe's geometric formality and underlying religiosity provides an insight into the art and career of the artist that previous black-and-white volumes cannot. An accompanying essay by Edmund White puts Mapplethorpe into historical, social, sexual, and artistic context.
