New York's Museum Of Modern Art have announced details of a new exhibition, celebrating the life and work of Bjork. She's awesome, so this will be awesome too. 

The Icelandic icons' career will be celebrated through a show that will "chronicle her career through sound, film, visuals, instruments, objects, costumes, and performance."

"Björk is an extraordinarily innovative artist whose contributions to contemporary music, video, film, fashion, and art have had a major impact on her generation worldwide," MoMA Chief Curator at Large Klaus Biesenbach said in a press release. "This highly experimental exhibition offers visitors a direct experience of her hugely collaborative body of work."

Bjork being Bjork, this will not be a straight-forward gallery show. There will also be a semi-biographical, semi-fictional narrative  feature - co-written by Björk and Icelandic writer and collaborator Sjón Sigurdsson. That's not to mention a new, immersive "music and film experience" created by director Andrew Huang and 3D software designer Autodesk. It's going to be awesome. Who wants to fly us to New York?

Meanwhile, Bjork is gearing up to release the film Biophillia Live, the last night of her most recent tour at London's Alexandra Palace. See our review and photos from that very brilliant gig here
