After graduating from graduate art history and sculpture, Laurie Anderson (n.1947) became famous in the 80's in the field of music. At about the 37 years old.
The extract below is from a concert entitled "Home of the brave "(1986) which unfortunately is impossible to find, and I was fortunate enough to see over and over again a few years ago.
One of the things I embellish Laurie Anderson is to be noted that his music comes from a non-plastic forming -Music: The composition is conceived in an almost space in which sounds are blocks that are assembled, plans overlap with unusual criteria a bit reminiscent of Kraftwerk and the severity of electronics. The music is a kind of canvas on which displays delicious ironies of contemporary life, its mise en scene are moving in the awful austerity (not want to use the term minimalism because I RECAGE, we leave to interior decorators).
All this combined with the vision of the world as indescribable as it is both fascinating femininity.
is frivolous to say that pioneered the use of electronics and "performance" in the field of pop music, but true. Those who know we owe much, and if as many know his work perhaps we would avoid some of the nonsensical preteciosos we see today.
