    The Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) is pleased to present an exhibition by internationally renowned performance artist Laurie Anderson, Forty-Nine Days in the Bardo.

    Laurie Anderson’s exhibition of new multimedia installations, Forty-Nine Days in the Bardo, includes texts as well as drawings, sculptures, projections and sound which are made from materials including mud, foil, iron, chalk, and ashes. Using the structure of a diary and The Tibetan Book of the Dead—also known as The Great Liberation Through Hearing in the Bardo—this exhibition explores the themes of love and death, the many levels of dreaming, and illusion.
