Laurie Anderson is one of America’s most renowned – and daring – creative pioneers. Known primarily for her multimedia presentations, she has cast herself in roles as varied as visual artist, composer, poet, photographer, filmmaker, electronics whiz, vocalist, and instrumentalist. A recipient of the Yaddo Artist Medal, Anderson is a beloved icon.
Willem Dafoe is an Oscar-nominated film, stage and voice actor, and a founding member of the experimental theatre company The Wooster Group. Named “one of the greatest actors of the 21st century” by The New York Times, Dafoe has made over 100 films in his expansive career. His most recent films include The Northman, French Dispatch, The Lighthouse, The Florida Project, Spider-Man: No Way Home and At Eternity’s Gate.
Sylver Wallace is a critically acclaimed vocalist, scholar and interdisciplinary Yaddo artist. Her multifaceted work has been featured nationally at Lincoln Center, The Public Theater and American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University, among others.
