Legendary American musician, singer, and poet Patti Smith, will present a series of her photographs at BALTIC to coincide with her concert at The Sage Gateshead.

One of the most influential artists in rock history, Smith came to prominence during the New York Punk movement of the early ‘70s and found worldwide fame in 1975 with her debut album Horses. Her unique intellectual and feminist take on punk and rock music has earned her the oft used title of ‘punk rock’s poet laureate’.
