Review

In Black Book, Robert Mapplethorpe presents an astonishing photographic study of black men today. In their diversity, impact, subtlety, technical virtuosity, erotic appeal, and deep humanity, these photographs constitute a stunning celebration of the contemporary black male.

"all my life they've been near me/these men" says Ntozake Shange in her Foreword, "i've been holdin your heart in/my hand since i was a child/cause i wanted what all you were/what all you are/now you're a man."

COPYCATS CAN'T TOP THIS THREE-PIECE SUIT

CHRISTOPHER ALLEN HORTON wrote on 12/21/2011:

THIS IS THE BOOK WITH THE FAMOUS THREE-PIECE SUIT PHOTO. COLT STUDIO'S VERSION (WITH MARK RUTTER) IS NICE BUT NO MATCH FOR MAPPLETHORPE'S.
