Interview Magazine June 1996 with Patti Smith by Robert Mapplethorpe

The June 1996 issue of Interview magazine featured Patti Smith on the cover and included a deep-dive interview reflecting on her return to the New York art scene after a decade of seclusion in Michigan. The issue also included a profile of actor Morgan Freeman.

For this issue, Smith was photographed by her close friend and most influential creative collaborator, photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Smith has famously described their bond as being "irrevocably entwined," a connection that persisted through various transformations in their lives and careers.

Condition: visible wear and tear on the cover (the cover page is a little lose around the spine of the magazine).
