5.0 out of 5 stars Essential and beautiful catalogue, 31 Jan 2003

By	Max Fournier (Venice, Italy) - See all my reviews

This slim, beautifully produced catalogue accompanies Patti Smith's current exhibition of her visual art works, manuscripts and photographs collected from three decades. This volume, published by the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, includes some of her rarely seen pieces from the late sixties and seventies, but centrally her more recent and current work. These are the incredibly subtle and intelligent silk screen print series depicting the remains of the collapsed World Trade Centre's south tower. Combining different images of September 11 with Breugel's Tower of Babel, Smith's own writings with the names of victims of the attack, this often almost abstract series is eeriely beautiful and a deeply personal response to the events. Patti Smith accompanies the images with two texts - Les Nuits d'Ete- about the process of her work and the influence that Berlioz's music had upon it. The second text - Twin Death- are her diary extracts from those September days and a critique of rising American nationlism.
Placing Smith's little known drawings and other works into an art historical context are two insightful and lucid essays by David Greenberg and John W.Smith. It is truly surprising that so little of Smith's art works have so far been publicly exhibited (apart from Paris and now the east coast). This is truly original work and a wonderful addition to Patti Smith's singular work as a performer and poet. An essential purchase for any one interested in contemporary American art.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT GREAT!, 10 April 2009

By	Pagan Ronnie (England) - See all my reviews

I found this book more than a tad disappointing. I absolutely love Patti Smith as a Singer, Punk Rock Goddess of the highest order and insightful, abstract Poet but painter? No, I don't think so. Though I do concede that these 'works of art' may well be far more impressive 'in the flesh' but in this 'little' book the 'tiny' pictures (that resemble a childs scribbles for the most part), left me feeling very let down and slightly regretting the fact that I had spent money on it. Keep your paintings for your own walls and your photo's for your own scrap book Patti and stick to making Awesome music for your fans, that's where no-one else even comes close! Love yu X
