Gallery: Anohni presents Hopelessness

Photos from a highly anticipated world premiere at Park Avenue Armory

On two consecutive evenings in New York, Red Bull Music Academy and Park Avenue Armory proudly presented the world premiere of Anohni’s live show for her new album, Hopelessness. Featuring original films which consisted of close-up shots of a wide range of women mouthing the words to each of Anohni’s impelling songs, the celebrated singer, composer and visual artist brought her politically charged masterpiece to the stage in emphatic fashion.

Besides giving first-ever renditions of her Hopelessness album material, Anohni also debuted a number of unheard pieces, including the anthemic “Paradise” and the defiant “Ricochet.” Take a look at our photos of Anohni’s moving performance below.
