Mapplethorpe, Robert. The black book. (Poem by Ntozake Shange). München, Schirmer-Mosel (1992). 4°. 12 S. u. 96 Duotone Tafeln. OLn. mit illustr. OU. Vgl. Bertolotti 232 f. (″Black Males“, Amsterdam 1980). – Text in Deutsch und Englisch. – „At this time, nude black males appeared only in pornographic magazines, photographed by artists who were as yet unknown, such as Craig Anderson and Mike Everest. It was Everest who suggested Mapplethorpe that he should use black rather than gray backgrounds, in order to bring out the luminosity of his models’ black skin more effectively. In ‚Black Males‘, it is the harmony of the compositions and the pensive character of the portraits that give the images their beauty and dignity“ (A. Bertolotti). – Sehr gutes Exemplar.
