{"product_id":"robert-mapplethorpe-frances-terpak-9781606064702","title":"Robert Mapplethorpe: The Archive","description":"Celebrated photographer Robert Mapplethorpe challenged the limits of censorship and conformity, combining 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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 400 illustrations, this volume surveys a virtually unknown resource that sheds new light on the artist's motivations, connections, business acumen, and talent as a curator and collector. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frances Terpak, Michelle Brunnick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1606064703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606064702\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Getty Research Institute\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.30h x 9.60w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/14\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2016","brand":"Frances Terpak","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44046575468799,"sku":"9781606064702","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_19f875f9-f11a-4863-92c6-5303fec4ae63.jpg?v=1684985322","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/robert-mapplethorpe-frances-terpak-9781606064702","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
