until 24.08. | #4333ARTatBerlin | Galerie Thomas Schulte presents from 28th June 2024 the exhibition Behold the lowly Vessel by the artist Robert Mappelthorpe.

Robert Mapplethorpe’s photographs of flowers are well known, and recognizable for their delicate yet erotic beauty. What is less discussed is the role of the specific set of objects often appearing within their carefully constructed compositions. Frequently drawn from the artist’s collection, the vases and bowls found in these still lifes reveal a deep appreciation for design – reflecting the confident eye and regard for classical form exemplified by his photographic work. It is the connection between the two, that forms the starting point of Behold the Lowly Vessel. Presented at Galerie Thomas Schulte, the exhibition takes a distinctive point of view, bringing thoughtful arrangements of Mapplethorpe’s photographs together with a private collection of vases inspired by them.

Vernissage: Friday, 28th June 2024, 7 – 9 pm

Exhibition dates: Saturday, 29th June until Saturday, 24th August 2024
