Patricia Morrisroe has the right idea. Agreed that his work is boarder-line pornographic. However there are several artists that base their work solely on nude photos. Robert Mapplethorpe's work shows beauty, and a change of style. He should not be penalized for it. No one here is to blame, but our supposed " upstanding society".
