Her perspectives on performance, visual arts, media, and drama in the work of Joan Jonas, Caryl Churchill, Raimund Hoghe, Dick Higgins, and Meredith Monk highlight the artist in the world and artistic process.

Her new book of reflections and conversations is a welcome arrival at this moment of great social and political change. The breadth of her interests originates in the cultural life of New York City and then spreads out into the world. She tosses a wide net across the cultural waters, giving us access to her encounters with some of the most compelling artists of the past several decades.</p>-- "Anne Bogart"<br><br><p>This volume gathers writing on artists who changed cultural discourse, from performance artist and musician Laurie Anderson to contemporary avant-garde playwright Robert Wilson.
