| | 1. |  | Mapplethorpe from teNeues Price: $74.81
Customer Review:
 Poor Robert Mapplethorpe. He had no idea the cauldron he was brewing when he picked up a camera in the early 1970s and started taking pictures. The art world, and public funding for the arts in America, is completely different because of his work. His work has been accused of (and sometimes... more info

| | 3. |  | Mapplethorpe: Polaroids from Prestel Publishing Price: $36.26
Customer Review:
 what do you think of when you hear his name? Yes S&M photos and the uproar that he caused from particular people questioning wether taxpayers' fund should support such smut or is this really art?

| | 4. |  | The Coral Sea from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $3.00
Customer Review:
 What a wonderful book. Patti Smith's poetry is full with an intense personal feeling. I can only echo the comments of previous reviewers; this book shines a bright and pellucid beauty, both in its poetry and in the sublime photographs.

| | 8. |  | Robert Mapplethorpe: Autoportrait: from Arena Editions Price: $24.00
Customer Review:
 Robert Mapplethorpe was never afraid of revealing his true self and personal sexuality to the world. He shocked many people with his "in your face" attitude. He wanted the world to realize that we're all sexual beings who shouldn't be ashamed of our bodies or sexual desires. Life is for living, and... more info

| | 9. |  | Pictures: Robert Mapplethorpe from Arena Editions Price: $110.57
Customer Review:
 The prototype of a man documenting his erotic life with a cold, sophisticated eye. Mr. Mapplethorpe holds nothing back in exposing the guts and glory of his intimate activities, fantasies and eye witness accounts of fetish behavior rarely edited into a coffee table art book. His eye for design makes... more info
