robert mapplethorpe madrid“On this occasion, the exhibition will consist of 32 works made between 1980 and 1989. The selection is made up of several pieces inspired by the forms and fragments of the human body, especially male nudes and portraits of one of its most common models, Lisa Lyon. Also, among the exhibited works are several photographs of plant forms, animals and objects that pose contrasts of light and suggestive geometries, one of the distinctive elements of her artistic work. ”
