German term or phrase: Mappenwerk

I imagine it's a common art term but I ain't heard it before.

Wenn Helmut Karrs einstiges Ziel im Mappenwerk „Menschen des 18. Jahrhunderts“ einer Erfassung von Personen verschiedener Berufe und Stände als Archetypen einer Gesellschaft galt, so erscheinen die Fotografien Michael Schmidts wie kritische Hinterfragungen dieser Typen.
