ROBERT MAPPLETHORPE'S "STATUE SERIES" PHOTOGRAPHED OUTDOORS AT LA REGGIA DI CASERTA The exhibition"The Forms of Beauty" includes unpublished materials related to Mapplethorpe’s Italian sojourns, on the occasion of the project Terrae Motus. Mapplethorpe constructs images through rigorous control of light and composition, using the Hasselblad camera as a tool for spatial construction. The human body, faces and still lifes are treated with the same formal attention, reduced to essential geometries and visual balances. Ara Pacis Museum hosts retrospective on Robert Mapplethorpe and the form of beauty | Finestre sull'Arte
