I loved your colab with Rich Evans
You mean the legendary Rich Evans from "The Ellen Show"!?!
If only she made a tutorial on how to massage the elderly
That bed looks too small for both her and her husband.
I owe rich evans everythign for introducing her to us
It broke new ground.
Meredith Monk and Rich Evans. Two great Healing Artists of our times.
Art can melt walls! True!
art can also create walls, which is does sometimes, by being inaccessible. there is a lot of "gate keeping" going on in the art scene and it's really refreshing to hear her say the opposite
i consider the creating of nuclear bombs art, because the work that goes into it is so incredibly complex.
so yes, art can definitely melt walls.
Love her! Her music reveals the primitive forces of life.
Check out her album "Dolmen Music," it will blow you away on 10 levels at once
🫀🫀🫀🫀 everything she says and creates is pure gold.
The question of alternative realities is one of the most fascinating in art!
What a beautiful meditation on your work and foundations in art. So simple, so grounded. Thank you.
Fantastically creative use of sound and movement. Love it
This makes me cry. One of the greatest artists of modern times. Still believing in the power of art and its capacity to heal and melt walls is so inspiring for me. Thank you, Meredith. Atlas is a masterpiece and one of the most important albums for me.
very inspirational, thank you!!!
Amazing . Thanks Meredith/Tate
"Star-Star-Star-Star"... Rich Evans: "What the Fuck?"
Great musician she is Meredith Monk
I love Meredith Monk since age 15.
I love her so much!
RLM is why I am here, I want answers to Turtle Dreams.
No need for complex answers, this isn't deep. It's just a combination of delutional self-importance and lack of discipline.
@@maxxam3590 It takes a lot of discipline to flawlessly perform vocal melodies as complex as those found in Monk's work. I also see no evidence at all that she is delusional or self-important. Whether or not her work is deep, is up for debate, so at best you are correct in one of your three accusations. At best.
@@nyckelhypa She's delusional and self important, and where in most professions those would be considerable drawbacks, in art they're a veritable boon.
Meredith, mi papa me hacia escucharte desde que estaba en la panza de mi madre, antes de nacer. Hice lo mismo con mi hijo. Ahora es un bebe y adoro poder compartir la atmosfera con tu arte presente. Creo que mi padre estaba seguro de lo que hacia. Sabia del poder curativo del que hablamos.
Las imagenes que me produce escuchar tus trabajos tienen que ver con algo escencial que sucede en mi ser
Me llamo Liber, tengo 30 años y naci en la Patagonia Argentina, Santa Cruz, Caleta Olivia
Gracias
YES!
lovely
Genius
God I love her voice ❤️
I atched this over and over! I too compose . Her freedom must have been well fought for ! We are so lucky to have her in the U. S. ! She said it "the fascist impulse " comes around in circles. Bolzano down and the other arrested former idiot in South America . If Putin isn't out of power soon suffering continues . Iranians have all the courage . Power must not always be a general and a gun . Some male in Iran must change conditions. I as there when the Shahenshah was the regime -they were better off then ! I can't believe the 21st century still has monsters at the reigns !

i love what she says about the human voice being a pure instrument that represents inner experience that words cannot express - but i'd love for her to extend on that more. I'd love to understand her more fully fleshed out ideas behind her art - i think it could be really profound if she did. But i don't feel like her ideas seem fully expressed or communicated yet
I don't think any can fully express for in our 3D world it is impossible...that is why ...imagery and personal "owned" images that one has experienced and perhaps very deeply...choose to exhibit when possible...
Thats what her music is for.
she's fully expressing and communicating her ideas in the art itself.
By saying you want her extend more is implying that music needs an intellectual component in order to be understood. The point of this music is that it transcends language. It’s about intuitive leaps that don’t always follow a linear train of thought, and that’s what’s beautiful about it. My belief is that you should never try to intellectualize art or music. It is about how it makes you feel. And that’s what Meredith does, and that’s why it’s beautiful.
Need to add that the reason Meredith’s work has received such high praise is that people are responding to the emotional quality of her voice and composition. The expression and meaning are in the VOICE. The depth of feeling within it. I’d ask you to consider why you believe meaning cannot come from these things, or why you think it needs “more”.
Me encanta
obrigado. muito obrigado. de sempre e para sempre. estve cá no Porto no Teatro Rivoli. E eu e não só somos humildes admiradores e muito mas mesmo muito GRATOS. obrigado
love her so much! one of my favourite artists of all time!
Süper !
Great little documentary about a really wonderful and inspiring artist. And she just seems so damned likable!
And yet "Turtle Dream" left an open wound that can never heal.
Thank you Mike Stoklasa for sending me down this road.
Hey I met you in person one day
Her work is borderline experimental.
IT BROKE NEW GROUNDS!
Very cool.
i know you're making an RLM reference but you're right unironically.
when art is healing, why are we so damaged ?
such a poetic question. thanks for sharing
Because of Rich Evans
You can heal, if you try hard. By listening. Music heals because it tells and we listen. There's nothing poetic in death, but in life
The greater "we" doesn't have enough spiritual depth art. What passes for "art" in contemporary popular culture is mostly "product", marketing, "entertainment", distraction, superficial. Those things tend to be less healing, less fulfilling. But the damage keeps coming from the gravely wounded perpetuating their pain and damage onto others.
Why are so many humans so cut off from nature, from self, from each other?
That why is not so easy to answer.... IMO..... fear is a powerful and destructive force....
Humbling answering
Perhaps it's just because they reveal a way to rebuild oneself
Good and important question
well then.
Joder!
Hello! I ask permission to use fragments of video from your youtube channel. This is Meredith Monk - ‘I Believe in the Healing Power of Art’ | Artist Interview | TateShots. I make my video in a cultural project that uses Meredith samples.
can u advice some artists similar to Monk , please?
Hi Mary,
You could have a look into performance artists such as Bruce Nauman, Joan Jonas, Bruce McLean, and Ana Mendieta but also dance and theatre performers such as Merce Cunningham, Spalding Gray, and Robert Wilson.
Very best, Tate
Tate thank U very much 🖤
Maja S K Ratkje !!
Does she own, or rent?

Interesting in concepts. But I have to say I’m one of the people that doesn’t “get” a lot of the actual results.
That's fine, though. I don't most of the time either but it just comes down to whether it somehow grabs your attention or move you or not. If not, that's just how it is. I don't think art is always about understanding it but I often see people say that it's a requirement. Well, the people that say they "don't get it" see it as one.
3:06 Oh, trust me, I get it. I absolutely do. The fact that I hate it doesn't mean I don't get it. I don't call it a combination of delutional self-importance and lack of discipline because I don't get it, I call it that because I *do* get it.
Oh get over yourself

Disturbing. , ,thought I would be kind
I would call quarry a load of noisy gibberish
Meredith Monk's career helps me understand how Donald Trump got to be president.
This attempt at insulting Meredith Monk doesn't work on any level. There's no way the average Trump voter listens to her music. There's also no reason to consider her incompetent in her field, as she can clearly sing very well, can play the piano and is a capable composer. I am not sure what you were thinking when writing your comment, but you failed on every possible level.
She’s like a white Yoko Ono, only she didn’t destroy the greatest band of all time and take all her talented husband’s money.
and she actually makes good music
