Björk fans have reason to rejoice, as WeTransfer announced today an exhibition titled The Day I Met Björk of unseen photographs of Björk, photographed by Spike Jonze and curated by Humberto Leon.
Scheduled to open on February 15 at Leon’s Los Angeles establishment, Arroz & Fun, the exhibition reveals more than 25 never-before-seen photographs captured during the summer of 1995 at the Chateau Marmont. These images offer a glimpse into the days leading up to the filming of the iconic music video “It’s Oh So Quiet.”
Of the thousands of photos taken that day, only six were published. Leon discovered the outtakes, which have long been treasured by Björk fans while helping Spike organize his archive.
“When I came across these photos at Spike’s I knew, as a longtime fan of both he and Björk, that they were special and needed to be seen. I remember being a college kid and seeing the originals in Detour, they were instantly iconic to me. It’s an honor to help bring these photos out from the archive for fans everywhere to see for the first time” said Humberto Leon.
A limited edition commemorative zine featuring never-before-seen contact sheets and a conversation between Jonze and Leon is available to download now globally for free.
