Charlotte Gainsbourg earnestly and affably discusses her life and self-perception, noting that despite a nearly life-long career acting, singing and modeling, she doesn’t consider herself an Artist, and she reflects on how this may actually be reassuring and maybe affords her a healthy distance from the trappings of the compulsory creation of work. She also speaks — with a visible, heroic poignancy — about returning to music 20 years after the death of her father, with whom she recorded the controversial “Lemon Incest” at age 12; her work with Lars Von Trier on Anti-Christ, for which she was voted Best Actress at Cannes in 2009; recording with Beck.
Charlotte Gainsbourg will be playing the final night of Coachella…after catching her show in NYC at a never-seen-it-so-packed Hiro Ballroom, I fervently suggest you check her set. I’m also guessing that Beck will join her onstage?
