The Museum of Modern Art recently hosted its annual Armory Party, a benefit event with live music and DJs that celebrates the opening of The Armory Show. Over 500 high-profile Manhattanites including Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Jessica Biel and Alexa Chung turned out for the chic soiree, which benefits exhibition programming for The Museum of Modern Art and MoMA PS1. Following a meet-and-greet with the show’s commissioned artist, Liz Magic Laser, and a tour of the sixth-floor galleries, guests were treated to a five-song set by Solange Knowles in the museum’s Agnes Gund Garden Lobby. Beyoncé was reportedly so proud of her sister’s performance that she “had to hold back tears.”
