As Björk’s retrospective opens at the Museum of Modern Art in New York this weekend – and given that we can’t be there ourselves, plus the fact that we’re super jealous of everyone who can be – we’ve curated our own mini retrospective of the iconic Icelandic singer’s most brilliant and utterly pioneering moments.
The retrospective, which opens on Sunday, will chart her incredible body of work, covering everything from film, music, photography and costume, an audio guide developed with Volkswagen – and yes; the swan dress she wore to the Oscars is there, naturally.
We've long ❤ this photo of the singer taken by Glen Luchford for The Face in 1993.
