Björk

Björk's not one for small gestures, so it makes sense that the Icelandic art-pop empress is headlining NYC's grandest theaters—continuing a six-show local stint—in conjunction with her blockbuster MoMA retrospective. This would all be big news under any circumstances, but considering that Björk unveiled her latest LP, Vulnicura—an emotive, arresting collaboration with vanguard producers Arca (on hand here) and the Haxan Cloak—back in January, each of these gigs seems destined for show-of-the-year status.
