Watch Patti Smith Talk About Robert Mapplethorpe and Andy Warhol


As has been well documented, we could listen to Patti Smith talk about anything forever, but this recent set of clips from the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark is filled with gorgeous reminiscences. Her description of the first time she encountered Robert Mapplethorpe — a moment that also appears in Just Kids — is particularly poetic. She’s also brutally honest about her first impression of Andy Warhol and his work. [via Dangerous Minds]
