Description
Patti Smith: Before Easter After by Patti Smith is a poignant visual narrative that offers an intimate portrait of rock 'n' roll icon Patti Smith during a transformative moment in her career. Rarely seen images by legendary photographer Lynn Goldsmith combine with candid behind-the-scenes photographs and striking studio shoots to create a deeply personal look at the singer. The book includes images of Smith performing on stage, as well as close-up portraits that reveal her self-assurance, defiance of cultural norms, and effortless poise. These photographs also capture a pivotal moment in Smith's life, including her life-changing accident while on tour in 1977 and its aftermath. Patti Smith's original poetry and song lyrics punctuate the narrative, adding depth to this unique visual celebration. This book is both a glimpse into a significant time in music history and a tribute to an enduring partnership between two creative collaborators. With hundreds of images and personal insights, Before Easter After provides a fascinating look at the life and art of Patti Smith.
