[Leica] OT: documentary about Mapplethorpe

[Gerry Walden]

I remember seeing a major retrospective of his work in Vienna and being staggered by the sheer quality of it. He is a photographer who you either love or hate: personally I think his work is tremendous and he left us far too early. I wonder if yje BBC will screen the documentary and revive the interest in him now the AIDS is maybe more accepted.
