Review by Ann Copeland: "Patti Smith's foreword, "A Final Flower," is a poetic tribute to the late photographer whose recent retrospective exhibition sparked a national legal debate over censorship in the arts. Smith's observation that Mapplethorpe embraced "the flower as the embodiment of all the contradictions reveling within," and in these photographs "found it was as easy to hurl beauty as anything else," enlarges this work in a meaningful way. The 50 color photographs of flowers taken over the past decade "by one who caused a modern shudder" are surprisingly conventional yet uniquely striking in their composition and lighting; Smith attributes their power to Mapplethorpe's "unflinching perception of the color, form and personality of the flower." The book's simple and sublime presentation--each opening a full-page plate facing a blank--serves to remind us that Mapplethorpe was a masterful photographer, not just an iconoclast."

Patti and Robert. She is a better poet than a musician to me. Erotic and stunning. What a shame, dear Robert.
评分很难不去想象这些照片挂在厨房里的样子,Kitsch吗?好像有点。影集找Patti Smith写前言的结果就是,写出来的不是一个摄影师,而是个小孩子。
评分Smith's observation that Mapplethorpe embraced "the flower as the embodiment of all the contradictions reveling within".
评分怎么看都觉得很适合当挂历台历插图,或者用做商业海报... Patti Smith的前言写得只能说很朴实...
