Critic Reviews of "Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures"
Globe and MailJanuary 13, 2017What we learn from the enjoyable punditry of siblings, art-world associates and former lovers is that the gorgeous provocateur was consumed with fame, and that everything and everybody was a means to that end.
Time OutApril 19, 2016The thing you learn from this in-depth doc is how much of a trail he blazed.
Washington PostApril 05, 2016Look at the Pictures: It restores a sense of the forbidden to Mapplethorpe that's been lost in the years of worship.
Village VoiceApril 05, 2016Each chapter of Mapplethorpe's biography - his Catholic boyhood in Queens, his renowned romances with Patti Smith and the collector Sam Wagstaff, his devotion to and aestheticizing of s/m - is given the same cursory treatment.
San Francisco ChronicleApril 04, 2016Look at the Pictures mirrors what Mapplethorpe did with his own life and career: It uses the pictures to tell a version of Robert Mapplethorpe while leaving us with the nagging feeling that there was much more to him than met the eye.
Entertainment WeeklyApril 01, 2016Though an undoubtedly fascinating journey into the artistic mind (and the 1970s and 80s New York City), Look at the Pictures never quite breaks free from the lionizing of Mapplethorpe and appeasing people who already defend him.
NOW TorontoJanuary 18, 2017The most revelatory facet of Look At The Pictures is what you hear: Bailey and Barbato accessed a trove of audio recordings in which Mapplethorpe discusses himself with disarming frankness.
Total FilmJanuary 02, 2017Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato's authoritative doc about the artist positively commands us to appreciate it, from flower studies to the fetish scenes that shocked '80s America.
Herald Sun (Australia)September 21, 2016This look at the life, times and legacy of the late photographer Robert Mapplethorpe works just fine as an entry-level overview of the subject.
The Sunday AgeSeptember 19, 2016The focus of this documentary is the work and life - the former overwhelmed the latter - of iconoclastic American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe.
Irish TimesAugust 08, 2016Despite some moving contributions from family members, particularly Mapplethorpe's younger brother Edward, the film never really gets anywhere near its subject.
FlavorwireApril 27, 2016The film seeks to humanize an artist who'd been demonized, but not by ignoring his own demons.
