Flash Back to the 80's...and the 70's



I love Laurie Anderson. I bought the Big Science album I think the summer of 1982. I had to hide this album from my Rush loving college roommates. I exhausted myself explaining to them that good art (music) doest't have to be accessible to the masses. Music and Art are not there to be popular, but to cause thought emotional appreciation and conversation. Today this continues for me at art museums. When asked, "why is this art" I no longer attempt any answer. Art (see below) is about expression emotion etc., for both the artist and the viewer. Yes maybe your kindergartner could have painted that.... If you child OR you can paint this, please email me.
