The impact on visitors to the exhibition was inevitably tempered by the wide range of subject material and the shock to our sensibilities of the homo-erotic photographs, the like of which had never been seen on the walls of a British gallery before.” The exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery showed a much more conventional side of Mapplethorpe, focusing largely on ‘straight’ portraits.
