Laurie Anderson
"Homeland"
“Laurie Anderson is a singer-songwriter of crushing poignancy—a minimalist painter of melancholy moods who addresses universal themes in the vernacular of the commonplace.” –Rolling Stone
A major force in the American cultural landscape, Laurie Anderson is one of this era’s most prolific and farsighted artists, playfully taking our imaginations beyond the boundaries of the expected with her provocative mixed media extravaganzas. Joined by a trio of musicians, today’s most celebrated performance artist returns to UCLA Live with the premiere of another insightful work. A combination poem, play and concert, Homeland explores America’s obsessions with security, distance and information, the relationship of fear and freedom, the increasing acceptance of violence, and the persistent new language of war. Using the synthetic language of technology and sensuous language of song writing and poetry, it will look at American style totalitarianism, shifting images of empire, and reality shows, among other things.
