Between 2017 and 2021, Stephan Crasneanscki and Patti Smith collaborated on the creation of Perfect Vision, a triptych of albums which take their inspiration from the writings of three emblematic French poets: Antonin Artaud, Arthur Rimbaud and René Daumal. Central to the work was the poets’ necessity to travel to different lands to acquire a new vision and perspective on themselves and their art. Recorded in the Sierra Tarahumara of Mexico, the Abyssinian valley of Ethiopia, and the Himalayan Summit of India respectively, each record’s core idea is that every landscape holds sleeping memories that are the witness of human passage.
Produced with Soundwalk Collective’s Russell Elevado, Leonardo Heiblum, Nicolas Becker, and Simone Merli, each album retraces the poets’ footsteps, guiding us through soundscapes and musicalities revisited by Patti Smith’s enchanting voice. Stimulated by these metaphysical journeys, the musical and sound composition of Perfect Vision is the starting point for this site-specific, multidisciplinary exhibition originally created by Soundwalk Collective and Patti Smith at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and redesigned for the MAC/CCB in Lisbon.
A poetic and immersive quest, Evidence is an ode to a borderless world. The physical, sound, and visual journeys of Soundwalk Collective enter into an infinite conversation with the poetic trajectories of Patti Smith to create a new vision and language. The exhibition space presents sound, film, abstract imagery, objects, and found art collected from their travels, leading the visitor into a large investigative installation that juxtaposes photography, text, and original artworks by Patti Smith.
Exhibition organised by MAC/CCB in collaboration with the Centre Pompidou.
Exhibition presented within the scope of the Belém Soundcheck Festival, a festival held in partnership with Égide – Portuguese Arts Association, EGEAC and the Italian Institute of Culture, Lisboa.

Evidence: Soundwalk Collective & Patti Smith
23 de Mars – 15 de Septembre, 2024
Entre 2017 et 2021, Stephan Crasneanscki et Patti Smith ont collaboré à la création de Perfect Vision, un triptyque d’albums qui puise son inspiration dans les textes de trois poètes français emblématiques : Antonin Artaud, Arthur Rimbaud et René Daumal. Au cœur de leur travail, les poètes ont éprouvé la nécessité de voyager vers divers horizons pour découvrir une nouvelle vision et une nouvelle perspective d’eux-mêmes et de leur art. Enregistrés respectivement dans la Sierra Tarahumara au Mexique, les montagnes de l’Abyssinie en Éthiopie et au sommet de l’Himalaya en Inde, ces albums reposent sur l’idée que chaque paysage renferme des souvenirs endormis, témoins du passage de l’homme.
Produit en collaboration avec Russell Elevado, Leonardo Heiblum, Nicolas Becker et Simone Merli, membre du Soundwalk Collective, chaque album revient sur les traces des poètes, nous conduisant à travers des paysages sonores et musicaux revisités par la voix incantatoire de Patti Smith. Stimulée par ces voyages métaphysiques, la composition musicale et sonore de Perfect Vision est le point de départ de cette exposition site-specific et multidisciplinaire initialement créée par Soundwalk Collective et Patti Smith au Centre Pompidou à Paris, et repensée pour les espaces du MAC/CCB de Lisbonne.
Quête poétique et immersive, « Evidence » est une ode à un monde sans frontières. Les voyages physiques, sonores et visuels du Soundwalk Collective entrent dans un dialogue infini avec les trajectoires poétiques de Patti Smith, pour créer une nouvelle vision et un nouveau langage. Entre sons, films, images abstraites, objets et créations collectés au cours de leurs voyages, le visiteur est guidé à travers une vaste installation exploratoire qui juxtapose photographies, textes et œuvres originales de Patti Smith.
Exposition organisée par le MAC/CCB en collaboration avec le Centre Pompidou.
Exposition présentée dans le cadre du Belém Soundcheck Festival, un festival organisé en partenariat avec Égide – Association Portugaise des Arts, EGEAC et l’Institut Italien de la Culture, Lisboa.
