Patti Smith’s pictures
These works by Patti Smith reveal the flipside of her life as a rock-and-roll legend and NY scene icon, capturing
the poetic aspect of her nature and tracing a personal history that includes Robert Mapplethorpe and Arthur Rimbaud. A multilayered presentation includes poems, objects and photos by Mapplethorpe, documentations of her earlier Polaroid projects, personal images and an honorary installation.
