Beyoncé's highly anticipated album, "Cowboy Carter," has sparked a buzz unlike any other. Just days before the official release on March 29th, unauthorized projections promoting the album materialized on the facades of several prominent New York City museums. While the guerilla marketing stunt generated excitement among fans, it left museum officials scrambling for answers. A Midnight Projection Extravaganza On Wednesday night, New Yorkers were treated to an unexpected light show. Large-scale advertisements for "Cowboy Carter" were beamed onto the exteriors of various museums, including: Guggenheim Museum Whitney Museum of American Art New Museum Museum of Art and Design These projections featured the album title, release date, and a powerful statement referencing Beyoncé's previous struggles within the country music genre: "This ain't a country album. This is a 'Beyoncé' album." This line directly echoes a recent Instagram post by Beyoncé, where she opened up about the inspiration behind "Cowboy Carter" (Act II) and the lack of inclusivity she faced in the country music industry. Museums React: Surprise and a Touch of Humor The unauthorized projections caught several museums off guard. The Guggenheim Museum released a statement to ARTnews, clarifying their position: "The Guggenheim Museum was not informed about and did not authorize this activation. However, we invite the public — including Beyoncé and her devoted fans — to visit the museum May 16–20 when we present projections by artist Jenny Holzer on the facade of our iconic building to celebrate the opening of her major exhibition." While not explicitly condemning the projections, the Guggenheim used the opportunity to promote an upcoming art exhibit featuring works by Black and female artists. Interestingly, some fans speculated a possible connection between the "Cowboy Carter" projection and the Guggenheim's current exhibition, "Going Dark: The Contemporary Figure at the Edge of Visibility." The Whitney Museum and the New Museum also confirmed they were not involved in the "Cowboy Carter" projections. However, the museums seemed to take the situation in stride. The Guggenheim acknowledged the buzz on social media by sharing a fan post featuring the "Cowboy Carter" projection on their Instagram story, even adding a playful bee emoji. Social Media Frenzy: Fans Fuel the Fire News of the museum projections spread quickly on social media, igniting a frenzy among Beyoncé's devoted fanbase, the Beyhive. Fans eagerly shared photos and videos of the projections, expressing their excitement for the upcoming album. Eagle-eyed fans also noticed a clue on Beyoncé's Instagram story. She had subtly hinted at the projections by sharing the coordinates of the Guggenheim Museum. The other museums reportedly displayed the "Cowboy Carter" album cover on their exteriors. The Empire State Building Joins the Rodeo Adding to the marketing intrigue, another iconic New York landmark, the Empire State Building, appeared to acknowledge "Cowboy Carter" earlier in the week. Responding to Beyoncé's social media post promoting the album, the Empire State Building's official account shared an image of the building adorned with a cowboy hat. Guerilla Marketing or Artistic Expression? The unauthorized projections have sparked debate. While some laud it as a bold and innovative marketing strategy, others question its legality and potential damage to the museums' exteriors. However, the undeniable impact is the buzz it has generated for "Cowboy Carter." Beyoncé, known for her creative and strategic marketing campaigns, has once again dominated the headlines and social media conversations. FAQs: Q: What is "Cowboy Carter"? A: "Cowboy Carter" is the highly anticipated new album by Beyoncé, set for release on March 29th, 2024. It is considered Act II of a previous project. Q: Why were unauthorized projections of "Cowboy Carter" displayed in New York City museums? A: The reason behind the projections remains unclear. Some speculate it was a marketing strategy by Beyoncé's team, while others believe it could be a fan initiative. Q: Did the projections damage the museums? A: There have been no reports of damage to the museums as a result of the projections. Q: What are the potential legal implications of the projections? A: The legal implications are unclear at this point. The unauthorized use of a museum's exterior for promotional purposes could be considered trespassing or vandalism.

Pablo Picasso’s ‘Mousquetaire à la pipe’ from 1968 is a spectacular example of a theme that defined the last years of the artist’s life. The iconography of the musketeer was indicative of Picasso's self-awareness in the years before his death – gone from his paintings were the veiled references to the artist as the victorious gladiator or centaur, with the arrogant musketeer believed to be a more appropriate avatar. The painting is an early highlight of our Impressionist & Modern Art sales this May in #NYC.
