This exhibition traces the American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe's use of instant photography from 1970 to 1975. Bringing together almost one hundred polaroids taken by the artist, the exhibition includes self-portraits, figure studies, still lifes, and portraits of lovers and friends such as Patti Smith and Marianne Faithfull. These disarming, and at times moving, pictures offer insight into the artist's creative development at a formative time in his career. Organised by the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, in collaboration with the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation, New York.
