Sometimes Heartbreak Takes a Hostage

For Björk, a New Album, ‘Vulnicura,’ and a MoMA Show

REYKJAVIK, ICELAND — It wasn’t exactly a beach day. It was a chilly, damp November morning with a drizzle that turned intermittently to rain. Björk called it “sniffle weather”; she and a video crew were at Grotta, a lighthouse on a spit of land on the coast here that she has often rented for stretches of isolated songwriting.

The tide and fleeting winter daylight gave her only a few hours to make the video that, if all goes as planned, will turn “Stonemilker,” the first song on her new album, “Vulnicura” (One Little Indian), into the virtual-reality finale of the Björk retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art that opens on March 8.

Re: Favorite Björk song?

I really love both It's Oh So Quiet and Play Dead. But, I want to pick the cover version she did of You Only Live Twice. There is just something about her voice that I find amazing in that song. The original is great too.

Violently Happy, though i like most of her stuff.
 
How Björk broke the sound barrier

With an acclaimed new album, and a MoMA exhibition due next month, the Icelandic star is back. Award-winning music writer Alex Ross traces her musical journey from child prodigy to genre-defying queen of the avant garde

A few years ago, for a feature on a music blog, I asked Björk to make a selection of her favourite records. Her list included Mahler’s 10th Symphony; Alban Berg’s Lulu; Steve Reich’s Tehillim; a collection of Thai pop, entitled Siamese Soul, Volume 2; Alim Qasimov’s Azerbaijan: The Art of the Mugham; Joni Mitchell’s Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter; Kate Bush’s The Dreaming; Nico’s Desertshore; Public Enemy’s It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back; Aphex Twin’s Drukqs; the Ranges’ Panasonic EP; Black Dog Productions’ Bytes and James Blake’s debut album, James Blake.

bjork-the-gentlewoman-01-600x360.jpgBjork Covers 'The Gentlewoman' Magazine and Makes History

It takes a true maverick to change the game and no one embodies that spirit better than the Icelandic art-pop badass herself. So it’s only fitting that Bjork is featured on The Gentlewoman Magazine’s first full-color cover. Photographed by Alasdair McLellan for the U.K. publication’s eleventh issue, Björk’s portrait is a departure from the more avant-garde looks of her album covers, music videos, and stage performances, yet her hopeful and somewhat mysterious upwards gaze in the photograph still manages to evoke such strong emotions. Also: eyebrows on fleck.

BJORK ON KEEPING "VULNICURA" OFF SPOTIFY: "IT'S ABOUT RESPECT, YOU KNOW?"


Your new album, Vulnicura, is an account of breaking up with your longtime partner. How does working on such emotional material affect your process?

This has probably been the most impulsive album I’ve done. I just had to listen to my gut, what felt right. What threw me a lot was just how difficult it was. Every time I would want to skip it and just do a disco album I [couldn’t], because it was this big lump of songs I just had to deal with. Most people who go through a period of grief, it’s a process. It’s like chapters in a book: You do the first chapter and then you have to do the next chapter. In that sense it was a process that I wasn’t in control of.

Speaking of not being in control, the album leaked two months ahead of schedule, forcing you to release it early. That must have been particularly upsetting.

At that point I had had two years of things happening to me that I didn’t want to happen to me, so my Buddhist muscle had been well exercised. "Okay, another thing has happened to me that I didn’t want to happen to me! I have no choice but to deal with it." So in a strange way it was in the spirit of the album in that you don’t have a choice. And I was dying to get this album out and over and done with. So I think in a way it was a strange kind of blessing.

Vulnicura is not currently available on Spotify. Why not?

We’re all making it up as it goes, to be honest. I would like to say there’s some master plan going on [with the album release], but there isn’t. But a few months ago I emailed my manager and said, "Guess what? This streaming thing just does not feel right. I don’t know why, but it just seems insane."

Björk Is on Display, Up Close and in 3-D at MoMA

At the Museum of Modern Art on Sunday afternoon, Björk was seemingly everywhere. An artist known as Shoplifter sewed strands of hair onto Björk’s face. Around the corner, a textile conservator restrung pearls onto a topless wedding gown by Alexander McQueen, which was also worn by Björk. Nearby, Björk’s crystal-encrusted face floated in midair. A miniature Björk was on her way.

This Björk army was made up of mannequins, 3-D-scanned from her body, capturing her fierce and delicate features. Posed on the third floor of MoMA, the mannequins were being primped for a preview of the museum’s retrospective of her work, opening to the public next Sunday. The show is an immersive sonic and visual landscape, covering more than 20 years of her career. With music, video, fashion and technology all playing a part, the show is among the museum’s largest and most technically involved installations. “She’s literally worked with all the departments” in the museum for the exhibit, said Klaus Biesenbach, MoMA’s curator at large and the director of MoMA PS1, who helped conceive of the show.

Björk at MoMA shows how she transformed pop

Inside the volcanic pain and cosmic wonder of Björk’s inner world: come with an open mind (and some extra time)

Unless sulky spoilers somehow enhance your entertainment choices, do yourself a favour and hold off on reading the early reviews of Björk’s mid-career “retrospective” at New York City’s Museum of Modern Art. Some have griped that the show favours spectacle over substance; others sensationalised the relative smallness of the show. That said, don’t expect this to be the musical equivalent to the epic Savage Beauty. Instead, if Björk interests you even a little – and how could she not? – come to this experience with an open mind, neutral expectations, and be ready to meet and enjoy it on its own terms. Like her new album, Vulnicura, Björk is unique in its ability to play out like a living diary (and that's not a metaphor – journals are central to this exhibit). It's introspective, not outwardly reflecting. So, slow it down and be mindful of the present, not trying to force this experience to be something it isn’t. Rush ahead, and you may not be able to hit rewind. Give yourself a few hours to get in sync with Björk’s internal world, as well as your own.
