The Mapplethorpe Effect

Sunday, November 18, 2012 | 2 pm

In this talk, Richard Meyer, a professor of art history at Stanford University, places Robert Mapplethorpe's X, Y, and Z portfolios within two linked contexts: the formal logic of Mapplethorpe's photography and the culture wars over homoeroticism and federally funded art in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
