Robert Mapplethorpe:
The Catalogue Raisonne

With over 2300 artworks, The Catalogue Raisonne of Editioned Prints by Robert Mapplethorpe provides the most comprehensive document of the photographer's career ever published.

Developed in conjunction with the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation, the interactive CD-ROM features all of Mapplethorpe's editioned black & white prints - including his acclaimed male and female nudes, flowers, celebrities, still-lifes, and self-portraits - in addition to many of his equally striking (but less familiar) color prints and collages. The daring photos which sparked gallery closings and national debate are also included.

An extensive multimedia presentation features a narrated artist's biography and video interviews of Mapplethorpe and his contemporaries. The disc presents related images in context, including the X, Y & Z Portfolios and the Season in Hell series, as well as a complete electronic reproduction of the controversial Perfect Moment exhibit.
