He studied painting, drawing and sculpture in Brooklyn in the 1960s and started taking photographs when he acquired a Polaroid camera, in 1970. Beginning in 1973 and until his death in 1989, Mapplethorpe explored the flower with extraordinary dedication, using a range of photographic processes -- from Polaroids to dye-transfer color works. In carefully constructed compositions, he captured roses, orchids, snapdragons, daisies, tulips and other species - both common and rare -- and forever transformed the way we perceive a classic and familiar subject. The result -- a stunning body of work -- is collected in this elegant book, Mapplethorpe Flora: The Complete Flowers."-- Publisher's website.Table Of ContentsPolaroids
