Al aterrizar en Nueva York sobre las cenizas de la cultura post-hippie, la veinteañera Patti Smith trastocará todos los códigos existentes: el rock'n'roll cliché, la poesía excesivamente prosaica. Durante su carrera de cincuenta años, con un solo éxito comercial, logró la hazaña de convertirse en una leyenda viva sin salir nunca de los márgenes de la sociedad. Punk de corazón.

On May 18, 1936, Abe Sada, a former geisha, kills her lover by "erotic asphyxiation", then slices his sex and inscribes his name in his flesh. In an ultra-controlled and militarized Japan, the press is passionate about this transgressive incident, while the murderer defends herself, presenting her crime as an act of "crazy love". Relayed to the West, this murder conveys the image of a fantasized Japan, where all impulses are given free rein.

The pin-up is not just a pretty young woman, not so much dressed and fantasized. This popular American icon would even become a symbol of feminine claims. As soon as we pronounce the word "Pin-up", it's an erotic and retro cliché that comes to mind. We imagine a beautiful ingenue in light clothes looking at us with a smile, endless legs and sexy underwear to guess the curve of a buttock. This short-dressed girl who looks at us in the corner and smiles at us frankly, is an erotic icon.
