“exploring the concept of enlightenment through the lens of art with Laurie Anderson”
What is enlightenment? What does it mean to be awake? Are you awake?
Hosted by acclaimed musician and performance artist Laurie Anderson, the first season of AWAKEN from the Rubin Museum of Art makes the often-intimidating concept of enlightenment approachable and tangible. Each episode dives into the personal stories of guests who share examples of what awakening can feel like.
From deep introspection to curious, life-changing moments, awakening can take many forms, from the mundane to the sacred. Taking inspiration from the Rubin’s exhibition, “Awaken: A Tibetan Buddhist Journey Toward Enlightenment,” each story uses artworks as a starting point as we hear from authors, artists, wisdom bearers, and Buddhist teachers, because every journey is different.
