By Liz Logan
For over a week now, many of us have stared at Meredith Monk’s picture
on the Oberlin website — the one where she has cornrows and sways to one
side with her eyes closed, looking like a true hippie. We look at her and
wonder, what’s this “rule-breaking” artist all about?
Monk’s lecture on Wednesday to a jam-packed Hallock Auditorium gave
students a glimpse into her journey to stardom and her interdisciplinary
approach to art.

beast.
