Thirty years on the front lines of the avant-garde - and not a single superfluous sound. Björk has created her own musical language, unlike anyone else's, yet audible in all modern sound. Cultural scholar and musicologist Timofey Chaplyuk will analyze the phenomenon of the Icelandic singer and why each of her albums is an event. Björk is one of the most enigmatic and yet most influential phenomena in the history of pop music. The Icelander, who debuted on stage as a teenager, has traveled from a punk band and jazz singer to a creator of conceptual albums, where academic electronics, orchestral scores, and ethnic motifs come together into something absolutely unique. She does not belong to any one genre - or she belongs to all of them at once. Eclecticism is her credo, and each new album is an event that critics and listeners around the world discuss long after its release. Why is Björk a great artist? Can her work be called avant-garde or is it something more? How does she manage to stay in the spotlight for over thirty years without repeating herself even once? These questions are answered in the lecture by cultural scholar and musicologist Timofey Chaplyuk - an evening for those who want not just to listen to their favorite tracks, but to understand how they are structured and what lies behind them.
