Björk's massive retrospective is opening at MoMA this weekend, where it will remain through June 7th, and we got a peek inside yesterday. Everything's lookin' good, except that Björk mannequin wearing her famous swan dress. Did MoMA steal Madame Tussaud's Mary Steenburgen wax figure for this?

The "highly experimental" exhibit itself is pretty great, though, and a must-see for any fan of the musician—you'll find a Songlines section, which is an "interactive location based audio journey." You'll also be able to look at her sheet music, notes, lyrics, instruments, and gaze at her costumes. Then there's this thing:
There's also a section called Black Lake (another one which features an audio/visual aspect), where Björk herself greeted the press yesterday, dressed as a cactus. We wonder how often she'll pull a surprise visit over the next few months...
