Flowers; Mapplethorpe; Foreword by Patti Smith; Bulfinch Press/Little, Brown and Company, Boston, 1990. First edition. From the Blurb - Flowers is a breathtaking collection of flower photographs by celebrated photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. All in color, it features some of signify some of his deepest concerns as an artist. While to date his best-known flower images are in black and white, Flowers reveals his genius in color. The photographs included range from images of the early 1980s to many taken in the months before his death. The latter, in particular, are astounding in their intensity; here one finds both erotic drama and absolute clarity of composition Mapplethorpe's gift at its most bold and uncompromising. Accompanying the portfolio is a sensitive foreword bt Mapplethorpe's close friend, poet Patti Smith, who lends insight to our vision of these luminous blooms that have been plucked and fastened together by the hand of one with an unflinching perception of the color, form, and personality of the flower.
