Watch the trailer for Björk's Black Lake MoMA retrospective

14 February 2015, 15:45 | Written by Laurence Day

The NYC Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) is hosting a Björk retrospective soon, and there's now a trailer for her Black Lake installation that will air as part of it.

Black Lake is the visual accompaniment to her latest LP, Vulnicura, which we described in our 9.5/10 review as:

"...stark and powerful in a way that Björk has merely danced around for years. Here, in these songs, she has shed all of her skin: the lavish costumes, the genre-defying ambiguity, the punk rock empowerment, the unwavering emotional fortitude and the entirety of all assumed personalities that one might instinctively assign an icon. Here, on Vulnicura, she is simply Björk: a rattled human being caught within an emotional vortex, letting off the sort of violent chemical reflexes we are all prone to. Vulnicura is humanity at its most volatilely sublime."

Vulnicura is out now digitally on One Little Indian, and will be released on CD/LP on 2 March.
