Robert Mapplethorpe Exhibition

Went to this Exhibition today in Malaga, I must say not my kind of stuff and a bit controversial to say the least (check the web) anyway here is a sample of his work the basic ones and a few photos from inside the gallery and a couple of my arty shots and yes cameras were allowed.
All taken with my K20 and Pentax 18-250 my walk about lens.

I converted this photo to black and white as all his photos are b/w.

Hope you like them,

Thanks for sharin' his B&W prints with us Jack. The Warhol photograph is pure brilliance, the face, space and his hands; I could admire that photo all day long. Great photos.

Did they show any of his erotic photos? You should see them!

Thanks Paul, yes all of them but I think they would have been banned on here, that's why I didn't show them, interesting though.

Jack.

Jack, they should be shown if you've got 'em. Jus' put a warnin' on the thread. I think they may even enlighten a few people on here.

Didn't take them Paul, 1, the wife said no way, and 2, didn't want to infringe any copyright, sorry,

Jack.

But I could go back it was free entrance.

I'm puzzled - you obviously didn't feel possible infringement of copyright was an issue with the non-erotic originals you photographed?

Didn't want to offend anyone, and it is a free advert for him, however now that you have said that if you wish me to remove it I will.

Jack.

Your photo almost certainly falls into the "acceptable use" category, and in any case is free publicity.
