Laurie Anderson: 2020 New Zealand Festival of the Arts Guest Curator's Programme

Grammy Award-winning New York artist Laurie Anderson performed at the very first New Zealand Festival of the Arts in 1986. She returns now, three decades later, this time with a “crazy array of things” to intrigue and inspire you.

“One of the things that's great about festivals is that it brings new groups together, and that's fantastic. Every time I'm in a festival, I just love it because you bring stuff that people wouldn't normally see.”

Laurie Anderson has been described by The New Yorker as “America’s premier conceptual art/pop-music philosopher-monologuist”, with collaboration also at the heart of her eclectic and boundary-pushing artistic practice. Laurie has created work with the likes of Kronos Quartet, Philip Glass and most famously her partner in art and life, the late Lou Reed.

Laurie sees every work of live art as a creation made as much by the audience as the artist – so be there to play your role in this extraordinary series with one of the most celebrated contemporary artists in the world today.
