Via ArtsJournal, Irene Lacher chats with Laurie Anderson about Delusion (the piece she’s bringing to the Smith Center at the end of this week), an exhibition in Brazil, and an imagined project:
…I was in a green room with Yo-Yo Ma, about to give a commencement speech. And it was very hot and very boring, and we were sitting around and talking about different fantasies. And I said, “My fantasy is playing a concert and I look out and it’s all dogs.” And so, he said, “That’s my fantasy too.” And I said, “Whoa, that’s amazing.” We said, “OK, the first one that gets to do it has to invite the other one.”
