"Strange Messenger", curated by John Smith, presented works on paper, photographs, original manuscripts and
source material from Patti Smith’s work in different media. The focal point of the exhibition was doubtless the series of drawings inspired by the events of September 11 2001.
This was the first comprehensive documentation of her ouvre covering more than 30 years. The number of displayed items differed between 50 and more than 100 as more recent material
was added notably the "Cross Section" series in Japan. In some galleries the works of other artists were added to complement the exhibition: Portraits by Judie Lynn, Robert Frank’s video clip "Summer Cannibals", an installation by Ann Demeule-meester based on her collection "Woolgathering" or the original photographs of Franz Gertsch used as the "models" for his portraits. |
