Laurie Anderson

Went to Laurie Anderson's talk/discussion last evening....very interesting. When she was asked what she saw as beauty, she answered for her it was empathy & she likes this to come through in her work too. To get outside of me, me, me!

I'm going to Homeland tonight, really looking forward to it. She said that this show was sparked by anger, as artists generally in the US are not speaking out about what's happening in the States & that makes her very angry. Although her work has never been greatly political she feels she can not remain silent now.

Thanks to Mishalleneous from Sea of Memes blog I discovered that Laurie Anderson has a presence in My Space too!
