This book combines the photography and words of two extraordinary artists: Annie Leibovitz and Patti Smith.
Because of the dual nature of both artists’ lives—private and public—I divided the book into two sections. "I Am Large" highlights their work that they are most widely known for, while "I Contain Multitudes" glimpses into their inner selves.
The title is taken from the first line of Walt Whitman’s poem “A Song of Myself,” who served as an inspiration to both women.
Type is set in Arnhem, designed in 1999 by Fred Smeijers, and in in Aperçu, designed in 2009 by Colophon Foundry.
