Victor,
Very good catch, a nice slice of reality to show how life was.  I wish
you could have worked the group a little better, but I know how
difficult that can be.

I wish I could get up to New York to see the show.  One of my friends
owns a gallery that is one of the few able to sell Mapplethorps
through the trust.  Most of what she sells are the flower series.

Also, the group shown wasn't in the especiall controversial group, but
the little girls expression tells me that the parents should probably
move on fairly quickly from this exhibit and wait until she is a bit
older for Mapplethorps more graphic images.
