patti smith’s retrospective in paris photos.

Patti Smith’s Retrospective at the Cartier Foundation. Patti was there & it was so great to see her & Michael walk through the crazy crowded galleries. She stood proud & her artwork (from 1967 to present) was so crazy good, seems whatever comes from that wonderful woman is inspiring. It was a mixture of poetry, installation, film, photographs, & drawings, and a beautiful dark wall of unlit photographs for & from her great friend Robert Mapplethorpe. amazing.

David those are beautiful photos. Just from photos or video I’ve seen, the shine in Michael’s eyes when he is around Patti says it all. And look how proud he is to have his photo on the next page of the newspaper next to Patti.

I love that bottom photo. Nice to know that even a big star can be tickled by press coverage, and by other celebrities/artists.
