About the Item

A revised and updated edition of the most comprehensive survey published of Mapplethorpe's photography Robert Mapplethorpe was one of the 20th century's most important and influential artists, known for his groundbreaking and provocative work. He studied painting, drawing, and sculpture in Brooklyn in the 1960s and started taking photographs when he acquired a Polaroid camera in 1970.

  • Houses Robert A.M. Stern Architects
    Located in New York, NY
    The house is the architect’s favorite form: an opportunity to work collaboratively with clients on a design that shapes and enhances life and gives pleasure over time.

Located in dramatic settings across North America—from Los Angeles to the Michigan lakefront to the spectacular the coastline of the Eastern Seaboard— Florida, South Carolina, the Hamptons, and New England—these remarkable houses reveal the architect’s emphasis on the importance of context and his dedication to exploring the nature of space.
