“I WORK BETWEEN THE CRACKS, WHERE THE VOICE STARTS DANCING” To say that Meredith Monk is an outstanding singer, com poser, choreographer and filmmaker says a lot and yet too little. Monk works seamlessly across disciplines—pushing the boundaries of music, theater, dance, video, and installation, and is considered a pioneer of site-specific perfor mance. At the center of her oeuvre is the suggestive power of the human voice: the body becomes a resonating space for a universal language for which there are no words. Monk was the first artist to create a performance for the rotunda of the Guggenheim Museum, she performed in public car parks and on opera stages. This catalogue presents the first career encompassing, in-depth analysis of her work. Featuring never-before-pub lished archival material, musical notations, drawings, and photographs, as well as an insightful conversation with the artist, the essays underscore Monk’s lasting influence and affirm the relevance of her work for the present.

«Meredith, alene» er historien om den helt ordinære, fullstendig ekstraordinære Meredith Maggs som ikke har forlatt huset sitt på 1215 dager, og hennes ærlige forsøk på å gjenoppdage sitt eget mot og ta tilbake kontakten med verden. Meredith er morsom, smart og ganske tilfreds med livet. Fra hjemmekontoret mestrer hun skribentjobben sin med glans, hun lager deilige middager og kaker, leser dikt av Emily Dickinson og legger puslespill, med selskap av katten Fred. En gang i blant får hun besøk av venninnen Sadie, eller hun deltar i en samtalegruppe med likesinnede på nettet. Tom, som er frivillig i organisasjonen «Here to hold your hand» kommer også innom med jevne mellomrom. Men Meredith har ikke forlatt hjemmet sitt på over tre år. Hvorfor? Og hva skal til for at hun skal våge å krype ut av hulen sin? Etter hvert som hun får nye venner, vokser både selvtilliten og lysten til å gå ut. Men før hun kan gjøre det, må hun våge å konfrontere fortiden sin. Selv om hun kan bli såret.
