  • PATTI SMITH Eighteen Stations MARCH 3 – APRIL 16, 2016
    /robertmillergallery For immediate release: [email protected] @RMillerGallery 212.366.4774 /robertmillergallery PATTI SMITH Eighteen Stations MARCH 3 – APRIL 16, 2016 New York, NY – February 17, 2016. Robert Miller Gallery is pleased to announce Eighteen Stations, a special project by Patti Smith. Eighteen Stations revolves around the world of M Train, Smith’s bestselling book released in 2015. M Train chronicles, as Smith describes, “a roadmap to my life,” as told from the seats of the cafés and dwellings she has worked from globally. Reflecting the themes and sensibility of the book, Eighteen Stations is a meditation on the act of artistic creation. It features the artist’s illustrative photographs that accompany the book’s pages, along with works by Smith that speak to art and literature’s potential to offer hope and consolation. The artist will be reading from M Train at the Gallery throughout the run of the exhibition. Patti Smith (b. 1946) has been represented by Robert Miller Gallery since her joint debut with Robert Mapplethorpe, Film and Stills, opened at its 724 Fifth Avenue location in 1978. Recent solo exhibitions at the Gallery include Veil (2009) and A Pythagorean Traveler (2006). In 2014 Rockaway Artist Alliance and MoMA PS1 mounted Patti Smith: Resilience of the Dreamer at Fort Tilden, as part of a special project recognizing the ongoing recovery of the Rockaway Peninsula, where the artist has a home. Smith's work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at institutions worldwide including the Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto (2013); Detroit Institute of Arts (2012); Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, Hartford (2011); Fondation Cartier pour l’Art Contemporaine, Paris (2008); Haus der Kunst, Munich (2003); and The Andy Warhol Museum (2002).

  • Iconic Artist
    Artist, Musician and Poet Patti Smith’s New Photography and Installation Work to be Presented at the Wadsworth Atheneum HARTFORD, Conn., May 26, 2011 – From her explorations of artistic expression with friend and vanguard photographer Robert Mapplethorpe in the 1960s and 70s to her profound influence on the nascent punk rock scene in the late 1970s and 80s, pioneering artist, musician, and poet Patti Smith has made her mark on the American cultural landscape throughout her 40-year career. This fall, an exhibition of Smith’s work will premiere at the Wadsworth Atheneum, featuring over sixty new photographs and multimedia installations created between 2002 and 2011. The first museum presentation of Smith’s work in the United States in nearly ten years, Patti Smith: Camera Solo will highlight the continual symbiosis between Smith’s photography and her interest in poetry and literature and is on view from October 21, 2011 – February 19, 2012. “Patti Smith’s photography, shaped over decades of observation, commemorates the artists, poets, authors, family and friends from whom she draws inspiration. Modest in scale and shot solely in black and white, they are sometimes disquieting and often beautiful, but always intimate,” said Susan Talbott, Director and CEO, Wadsworth Atheneum. “We are thrilled to present this work at the Wadsworth Atheneum where Smith’s mentor Sam Wagstaff was curator and the work of her dear friend Robert Mapplethorpe was the subject of two separate exhibitions.” Patti Smith: Camera Solo will present approximately sixty black-and-white silver gelatin prints photographed with her vintage Polaroid camera. In the era of digital imaging and manipulation, Smith’s works champion the use of photography in its most classical sense: as a tool to document a “found” moment.

  • Patti Smith, Polar Music Prize Laureate 2011 Patti Smith, Born In
    Patti Smith, Polar Music Prize Laureate 2011 Patti Smith, born in Chicago in 1946, the oldest of four siblings, was raised in South Jersey. From an early age she gravitated toward the arts and human rights issues. She studied at Glassboro State Teachers College and migrated to New York City in 1967. She teamed up with art student Robert Mapplethorpe and the two encouraged each other’s work process, both of them pursuing painting and drawing and she poetry. In February 1971 Smith performed her first public reading at St. Mark’s Church on the lower eastside, accompanied by Lenny Kaye on guitar. In April of the same year she co-wrote and performed the play Cowboy Mouth with playwright Sam Shepard. Continuing to write and perform her poetry, in 1974 Smith and Lenny Kaye added Richard Sohl on piano. As a trio they played regularly around New York, including the legendary Max’s Kansas City, centering on their collective and varied musical roots and her improvised poetry. The independent single release, Hey Joe/Piss Factory, featured Tom Verlaine. Along with the highly innovative and influential group Television, the trio helped to open up a restricted music scene that centered at CBGBs in New York City. After recruiting guitarist Ivan Kral, they played CBGBs for eight weeks in the Spring of 1975 and then added drummer Jay Dee Daugherty. Smith described their work as “three chords merged with the power of the word.” Smith was signed by Clive Davis to his fledgling Arista label and recorded four albums: Horses (produced by John Cale), Radio Ethiopia (produced by Jack Douglas), Easter (produced by Jimmy Iovine), which included her top twenty hit Because the Night, co-written with Bruce Springsteen, and Wave (produced by Todd Rundgren).

  • Patti Smith and the Reconstruction of Her Public Persona in Life Writing
    Revista de Estudios Norteamericanos, vol. 23, 2019. Seville, Spain, ISSN 1133-309-X, pp. 191-208. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12795/REN.2019.i23.09 ‘I HAVE LIVED IN MY OWN BOOK’: PATTI SMITH AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF HER PUBLIC PERSONA IN LIFE WRITING SILVIA HERNÁNDEZ HELLÍN Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria [email protected] Received 18 July 2019 Accepted 13 November 2019 KEYWORDS: Patti Smith; memoir; autobiographical forms; Just Kids; M Train; identity; public persona PALABRAS CLAVE: Patti Smith; memorias; formas autobiográficas; Éramos unos niños; M Train; identidad; personaje público ABSTRACT: In 2010, Patti Smith published her first memoir, Just Kids, winning the National Book Award for Nonfiction. The book recounts Smith’s relationship with avant-garde photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, as well as her involvement in New York City’s burgeoning bohemian downtown scene. Five years later, she published a second memoir, M Train, a much more experimental narrative that goes back and forth in time and mixes dream and reality in an attempt to convey her nostalgic recollection of the past. This paper examines Patti Smith’s memoirs as a space where different genres of life writing converge, thus enabling the development of a multilayered, richly constructed narrative self whose identity is intimately connected with loss, self-discovery and the making of art. The analysis of her autobiographical prose works allows us to regard life writing as a way for women to devise a public image of their own. RESUMEN: En 2010, Patti Smith publicó su primer libro de memorias, Éramos unos niños, ganando el Premio Nacional del Libro en la categoría de no ficción.

Shlomith Rimmon-Kenan argues that ‘we lead our lives as stories, and our identity is constructed both by the stories we tell ourselves and others about ourselves and by the master narratives that consciously or unconsciously serve as models for ours’ (2002:11). An inquiry into how humans construct stories is also an inquiry into reliable and unreliable narration, into identity, and into the relationship between author, text and reader. It goes to the root of what it means to be human. In this paper these three aspects – (un)reliability, identity and the author-text-reader relationship—form a constellation that I trouble at. Specifically I’m interested in occasions when a narrator reliably tells a tale but suggests there are other versions of the same events that could be told, (by them or by other narrators), thereby adding complexity (unreliability) to their telling.

  • Adolescent Development Factors California District Attorneys Use to Determine Whether Juveniles Should Be Tried in Criminal Co
    Adolescent Development Factors California District Attorneys Use to Determine Whether Juveniles Should Be Tried in Criminal Court or Juvenile Court under the Provisions of Proposition 21, Codified as Welfare and Institutions Code Section § 707(d) Chapter One: Introduction A decision on whether or not to take a harder line on juvenile crime was made in California on March 7, 2000, when voters considered Proposition 21. The issues were whether the state’s century-old juvenile court system, which was built around the key components of rehabilitation, confidentiality of minors, and individual treatment, could handle violent criminals. Proposition 21 reflects a national debate on the values of juvenile courts (“California Weighs,” 2000). Proponent Pete Wilson, former Governor of California said, “We cannot ignore the fact that there are kids [in age] who are committing violent adult felonies, and we cannot tolerate it. And youth is no excuse for committing murder, robbery, rape, home invasions, or for terrorizing entire neighborhoods,” reports Jeffrey Kaye of KCET-TV, Online Focus - Juvenile Justice, on California's Proposition 21, which would require more juvenile offenders be tried as adults (Kaye, n.d., ¶ 1). Opponents describe the Proposition another way. We are in the midst of a transformation in the way society treats young people. Tough-on-crime politicians have abandoned the idea that youths are worth society’s rehabilitation and concern, instead embracing the notion that young offenders only deserve restraint and containment (Beiser & Solheim, 2000, ¶ 1). 1 Proposition 21 Background In 1995, the state legislature convened a bipartisan Task Force on Juvenile Crime and the Juvenile Justice Response (Nieves, 2000).

I know I am not just a fashion photogra - pher. And Patti Smith is certainly not just a rock icon. She is much more. For me, this movie is about discovering who Patti Smith is. This process of discovery has taken place over the course of 11 in - credible years of filming. I can’t believe it, but a quarter of my life has been spent framing her in my lens. And through this film, I want to channel that experience to the audience. It all happened so organically. I was just interested in her and in get - ting to know her as a person. As our friendship blossomed over a decade, and as I got to know her, my lens was getting to know her as well. Patti is a constant reminder to me that there’s an urgency in the world. everyone sits back in his or her comfort zone. No one goes to record stores and researches new artists anymore. So few people are out there knocking down the walls. Nowadays, everything is presented to us in an easily digestible format, accessible with the click of a button. The world we live in almost doesn’t seem real. I grew up with the top hits mTV fed me.
