Liz Phair article in Harp magazine

I come from a visual arts background where you’re expected to try and change and explore you’re art [sic] — I mean, Picasso had five phases in his career. To me, if you’re a real true artist I don’t expect you to stay the same. Now I don’t necessarily expect people to continue to buy the art, but I do expect the artist to try it at least.

Visual artists are supposed to do a few things: They’re supposed to be provocative; they’re supposed to drill into society and make you look at things a different way; they’re supposed to change styles; and they have distinct periods. That’s how I approach my music.

Apparently, Harp is some music magazine that I’ve never heard of. Despite that, it’s a good interview, spelling mistakes aside.
