THE GETTYFROMNEW
Robert MapplethorpeThe PhotographsPaul Martineau and Britt Salvesen
One of the most influential and controversial figures in twentieth-century photography, Robert Mapplethorpe still stands as an example to emerging photographers who experiment with the boundaries and concepts of the beautiful. In this timely reexamination of his oeuvre, the authors have put together a rich selection of images with bracing essays to provide a fuller and more nuanced view of this important artist.
THE J. PAUL GETTY MUSEUMHardcover £40.00
Robert Mapplethorpe The ArchiveFrances Terpak and Michelle Brunnick
Throughout his life, Robert Mapplethorpe kept rich studio files and art from every period and vein of his career: not just photographs, but his student work, sculpture, jewelry, and commercial assignments. The resulting archive of these works is fascinating and astonishing. This elegantly conceived volume lifts a veil on this little-known resource and sheds new light on the artist’s motivations, connections, and talent as a curator and collector.

The Thrill of the Chase The Wagstaff Collection of Photographs at the J. Paul Getty MuseumPaul Martineau
From 1973 to 1984, Samuel J. Wagstaff amassed a remarkable 26,000 photographs, ranging from well-known masterpieces to images from obscure sources, such as daguerreotypes and cartes-de-visite. This gorgeous exhibition catalogue offers an amazing overview of Wagstaff’s idiosyncratic collection, vividly reproducing over 150 of his finest photographs.

The nineteenth century saw a technological boom in drawing media, such as black chalk and charcoal, allowing artists to experiment in unprecedented ways. The resulting works are evocative, stunning, and even eerie. Noir brings together diverse artists, such as Goya and Courbet, and explores their inventive works on paper.

Cultural Memories in the Roman EmpireEdited by Karl Galinsky and Kenneth Lapatin
Memory pervaded all aspects of Roman culture, from literature and art to religion and politics. This volume is the first to address the cultural artifacts of Rome through the lens of memory studies, crafting a deep and poignant understanding of this ancient civilization.
THE J. PAUL GETTY MUSEUMHardcover £55.00
Household GodsPrivate Devotion in Ancient Greece and RomeAlexandra Sofroniew
Although today ancient religion is often conjured by depictions of the pantheon or images of grand temples, most worship during antiquity took place within the home in the form of daily prayers to household gods. This elegant volume provides an intimate look at these religious objects of Ancient Greece and Rome and repositions our understanding of religious practice within the domestic sphere.
