Patti Smith, taken at the Austin Opera House in 1978 by photographer Scott Newton from our exclusive collection, The Scott Newton Archive.
Available as a signed, limited edition photographic print
Photographers notes: I had seen lots of rock star types strut about the stage for years, but I had never seen, up to then, true performance art acted out under the cover of musical performance before Patti Smith. My definition of art is consciousness made tangible. It was clear her consciousness was deep and compelling, as was her music, poetry, and her performance art.
