Patti Smith is a writer, performer, and visual artist. She gained recognition in the 1970s for her revolutionary mergence of poetry and rock. Her seminal album Horses, bearing Robert Mapplethorpe's renowned photograph, has been hailed as one of the top 100 albums of all time. She has recorded twelve albums.
Smith had her first exhibit of drawings at the Gotham Book Mart in 1973 and has been represented by the Robert Miller Gallery since 1978. In 2002, the Andy Warhol Museum launched Strange Messenger, a retrospective exhibit of her drawings, silk screens, and photographs. Her drawings, photographs, and installations were shown in a comprehensive exhibit in 2008 at the Fondation Cartier Pour l'Art Contemporain in Paris.
Her books include Witt, Babel, Woolgathering, The Coral Sea, and Auguries of Innocence.
In 2005, the French Ministry of Culture awarded Smith the prestigious title of Commandeur des Arts et des Lettres, the highest honor awarded to an artist by the French Republic. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.
Smith married the late Fred Sonic Smith in Detroit in 1980. They had a son, Jackson, and a daughter, Jesse. Smith resides in New York City.
Smith's beautifully crafted love letter to her friend Robert Mapplethorpe functions as a memento mori of a relationship fueled by a passion for art and writing. Her elegant eulogy lays bare the chaos and the creativity so embedded in that earlier time and in Mapplethorpe's life and work.

評分 評分 評分其實從來都不是Patti Smith的粉絲,因為對她瞭解不多。沒有聽過她的歌,沒有讀過她的詩。在齣版社工作的Mari很早便推薦我讀這本《Just Kids》。她說這書紀錄瞭一個美好的年代,一個迴不去的紐約。幾個月以後Osman和Richard又再次力薦。Osman說他有這本書,可以藉我。於是上周四...

評分六七十年代愛好者的紐約下城朝拜指南,去年大約經過Hotel Chelsea一百萬次,當年的紐約就是我的午夜巴黎。前幾天翻到Dan在N年前的采訪裏說他覺得這本書很偉大,因為它是a love letter to his favorite city in the world,那時候心想,當然,你也愛紐約,誰不愛紐約。雖然我沒有多喜歡Patti和她的小夥伴們,但看她的故事,忽然懂瞭之前糊女士說的對戰爭年代的嚮往,這種想要被something bigger所吸引、指導和掌控的欲望,應該正是當下對自身動機去嚮充滿猶疑的真實寫照。
