CENSORSHIP IN THE ARTS:

Will controversy be Mapplethorpe’s lasting image?by Marianne Combs, Minnesota Public Radio

Photographer Robert Mapplethorpe is best remembered for the

controversy that surrounded some of his work. In the 1970s and ‘80s he was castigated for glorifying sexually explicit con-tent and homoerotic themes. A new exhibition of his photo-graphs at the Weinstein Gal-lery in Minneapolis explores his more traditional side, in which he reveled in the clas-sic beauty of the human form. Weinstein Gallery in Min-neapolis is one of only two galleries in the nation that work directly with the Rob-ert Mapplethorpe Foundation

to display the artist’s images. This is gallery owner Martin Weinstein’s second show of Mapplethorpe’s photography. He says it’s a look at some of Mapplethorpe’s most beauti-ful pieces, centered on pho-tographs of male and female torsos. There’s a man seated on a stool, a woman arching her back, and a trio of nudes posed almost as you might expect to see them on a Grecian urn.

“We’ve presented him here once again in the classi-cal style,” says Weinstein. “My feeling is that Robert became a larger-than-life person, so

we’re dealing with celerity sta-tus. I think that we’ve stripped that off in this show.”

It’s not easy to separate Robert Mapplethorpe’s infamy from his photographs.

Mapplethorpe died of AIDS in 1989 at the age of 42. Despite his early death, he left behind an extensive body of work, ranging from intimate por-traits of famous artists to lumi-nous still–lifes of flowers. But it was his series of photographs depicting sado-maochistic sex acts that drew him the most atten-tion. Just a few months after his death, a touring retrospective of Mapplethorpe’s work launched

a culture war. Republican Senator Jesse Helms attacked the National Endowment for the Arts for funding pornography. The Corco-ran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC cancelled the showing it had scheduled. When the exhibition arrived at Cincinnati’s Contemporary Art Center, its director was indicted for pandering and obscenity. The director was eventually acquitted of all charges.

Minnesota Center for Photography’s director George Slade says that firestorm has all but burned out.

“Maybe there’s a bit of controversy that clings to the name that may help market it, that may draw people in,” says Slade. “But I think that he has become, if not a mainstream, blue-chip artist, at least a highly-thought-of modernist and formalist, and a very accepted artist.”

Slade says with time, Mapplethorpe’s

images have become much more widely respected. He compares him to the 1930s photographer Edward Weston Weston took a luscious picture of a bell pepper that looked almost human.

“For an audience in 1930, a pepper was something that you chopped up and put on your

salad; it wasn’t something that made fine art,” says Slade. “So there was a trans-gressive quality to that. I mean, Weston photo-graphed toilets as well and made beautiful pictures of toilets. And people said, ‘That’s not art, that can’t be art. That’s not something I want to look at.’”

Weston is now considered one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century. Many believe Mapplethorpe fits in that select group, too. Photographer Lynn Davis was a friend of Mapplethorpe. She says he was an accomplished photographer, not just in terms of his subject matter, but also in terms of his technique:“There are many things about his work,” says Davis. “He was always trying new things. He did lithographs, he did platinum prints, he tried everything. And had he lived lon-ger, I think he’d be right along with the best of them today.”

Davis says ultimately Mapplethorpe will not be remembered for his controversial im-ages; he’ll be remembered for his entire body of work. Nineteen of Robert Mapplethorpe’s photographs are on view at the Weinstein Gallery in Minneapolis through mid-July. t

“Maybe there’s a bit of controversy that clings to the

name that may help market it, that may draw people in”

Rules for Short Game

Five rules changed for the Short Game

During preparation, the Banker shuffles then deals three Title Deed cards to each player. These are free no payment to the Bank is required.

You need only three houses (instead of four) on each lot of a complete color-group before you may buy a hotel. Hotel rent remains the same. The turn-in value is still one-half the purchase price, which in this game is one house less than in the regular game.

If you land in court you must exit on your next turn by using a “Get Out of Court Free” card if you have (or can buy) one; rolling doubles; or paying $50. Unlike the standard rules, you may try to roll doubles and, failing to do so, pay the $50 on the same turn.

The penalty for landing on “Income Tax” is a flat $200.

END OF GAME: The game ends when one player goes bankrupt. The remaining players value their property: cash on hand and lots owned, at the price printed on the board; any mortgaged property owned, at one-half the price printed on the board; houses, valued at purchase price; hotels, valued at purchase price including the value of the three houses turned in.

The richest player wins!

LET’S MOTORRoughly 50 years of fun and motoring have all added up to this: hundreds of innovations, thousands of checkered flags, millions sold, legions of devoted fans and one International Car of the Century award. Here’s how it happened.

Revolutionary ideasThe two most important innovations Issigonis

came up with were to create more room in the cockpit: pushing the wheels all the way

out to the corners and turn the engine sideways. The world had never seen a car

quite like it. And when the Mini launched in 1959. The public was a bit baffled.

The spirit of the streetsSoon enough, people began to recognize that the

Mini was not merely a car. The unique combination of style at a low cost, small size and

nimble handling, came to symbolize independence and spontaneity. The very essence of the youthful

1960’s. It was a whole way of life.

Group of motoring entusiats in New York break the Mini Cram World Record by fitting 21 people in a Mini

1959: Offical launch of the classic mini

A cultural phenomenonOne of the most remarkable elements of the Mini’s popularity was how its infectious spirit transcended traditional class barriers. From hipsters and mods to milkmen, rock stars and royalty to racers. Everyone could have fun and feel free motoring in a Mini.

Birth of a racerIt was 1961 when the humble little people-mover fell into the hands of British raving legend John Cooper. A more powerful engine, bigger brake and a few tuning tweaks later, the Mini Cooper 997 was introduced. And a rally demon was born.

A joy ride

It also soon became apparent that Issiogonis’s numerous layout innovations, intended to

create more passenger room, also happened to help make the Mini incredibly fun to drive. Wheels at the

corner meant a wide, go-kart stance and nimble handling. And the transverse engine kept weight over the front tires, helping provide great balance and grip.

A familiar dilemmaThe year was 1957, and in post-World War II England the Suez Canal Crisis had sent fuel prices soaring, leading many to start wondering if the large, gas-guzzling vehicles of the day made much sense.

A car for everyoneSo Sir Leonard Lord of the Morris Company issued his top engineer, Alex Issigonis, a challenge: design and build a small, fuel- efficient car capable of carrying four adults, within economic reach of just about anyone. As fate would have it, the challenge of fitting so much function into such a small package inspired a couple of historic innovations.

A giant killerBefore long, the nimble little Mini was outracing and outlasting the larger, more powerful, but clumsier sedans of the day. Visits to the winner’s circle became a regular event as Mini chalked up by numerous international race wins-including 3 at the prestigious Monte Carlo rally from 1964 to 1967.

Good to be back

Guinness Book of World Records

A new MINI for the millenimum

More than just a carTaking the 2003 North American Car of the Year, the general public and auto enthusiasts alike find the new MINI hard to resist. Invoking smiles and curiosity everywhere they go, new owners quickly discover just how much fun a MINI can be. Owners personalize their MINIs to theirs hearts’ content and form motoring clubs all across the country.

Among the world’s bestMaking its US debut in March 2002, the new MINI is bigger, stronger and faster than ever. Slalom tests prove that this surprisingly affordable head-turner hasn’t lost a step, and it not ranks among the world’s top performance vehicle.

European car of the centuryFast forward to 1999. Over 5 million Classic Minis had found happy homes around the world leading a panel of 130 international automotive journalists to vote Mini “European Car of the Century.” In fact, only Ford’s Model T received more votes for the global title.

Everywhere but AmericaBy 1977, Mini’s popularity had truly taken off

around the world with over 4 million cards sold in each corner of the globe. Sadly, Americans never quite got the chance to catch the fever

since new emissions regulations in the late 1960’s forced Mini to give up its U.S. green card.
