Celebrate an iconic force in music, film and visual art.
Known for her groundbreaking contributions since the early 1990s, Björk has continually redefined the boundaries between sound and vision, making her an enduring influence on the intersection of music and the moving image.
Since her breakthrough in 1993 – more a bold reintroduction than a debut – Björk has embraced the music video as a vital artistic medium, collaborating with visionary directors to create unforgettable audiovisual experiences.
This program offers a comprehensive journey through her cinematic endeavours, featuring narrative films, documentaries, concert films and oh-so-many music videos. Whether she’s acting in a Cannes award-winning role, composing soundtracks or co-creating concert visuals, Björk’s artistry transcends categorisation.
Join us as we honour the trailblazing career of an artist whose music and visuals are inseparably intertwined, pushing creative boundaries and inspiring audiences worldwide.
