If you read my interview with MGMT collaborator (and fellow ITP student!) Alejandro Crawford a few weeks back, you’ll know that Alejandro and the band had pretty ambitious plans for their performances at the Guggenheim last week. I attended the second of the two shows and am happy to report that it exceeded my expectations in nearly every way imaginable. Perhaps most impressive was the fact that the performance and accompanying light show served to highlight—rather than upstage—the unsettling details of Maurizio Cattelan’s sculpture mobile, in accordance with the band’s stated intentions. To read more of my impressions and see a slideshow of my photos from the show, head over to MTV Hive.
