Paper Cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Mapplethorpe, Robert - Photographs (illustrator). Third Printing. Paper Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. Third Printing. Over Size Softcover. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Foreword (7p.) by Ntozake Shange; 91 full-page plates in black-and-white by Robert Mapplethorpe; from the inside of the front cover: "Mapplethorpe's exquisitely printed pictures of both gay and straight males are explicit and erotic. In their use of flattering lights and lavish deep-toned printing, they openly declare their bold belief in the esthetic equality of the male as model. But Mapplethorpe's pictures ironically confirm the Kenneth Clark doctrine: despite their smart, gleaming finish, they hail the body divine in the most traditional manner--with the sexes swapped." ---Newsweek Book condition: The lower front cover corner tip is curled upward a bit.

Hardcover. 4to. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 91pp. Pages are clean and unmarked. Front endpaper has some light foxing areas. Black cloth-wrapped boards with silver text on spine. Black and white printed dust jacket has a small stain and rough texture in some areas. Front of jacket is also sunned evidenced by a vertical line. Soiled and sunned across back. Top edge is foxed. Rear paste down and inside back of dust jacket are also foxed.
Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, 108 pages. A classic, indeed perhaps the best of the Mapplethorpe books. And for many most certainly the most typical Mapplethorpe, now available once again thanks to this re-edition. The Black Book, first published in 1986, presents 96 formally stringent and highly erotic nudes, all of them photographs of black men, either as full figures, or staged as details, as fragments of their bodies. Stylized as classical statues or provocatively in all their presence and sensuous radiance. Black-and-white photography was Mapplethorpe's preferred medium. And his obsessive aesthetics was based on completely mastering it, as this enabled him to visualize any number of tonal gradations and penetrate deep into the very pores of the gleaming black skin. It is a method that reached a climax in these images. The Black Book, Mapplethorpe s homage to the black male body, has always been one of the most important visual contributions to the discussion on beauty, sensuality, and sexuality in photography. Record # 362452.
