Banks, Björk, and Blood Orange Light Up Houston on Instagram


Between sets by Aphex Twin, Banks, and Sophie, attendees of Houston’s second annual Day for Night festival made time to take in the best of the local art scene — whether it was the installations on the festival grounds (flickering light installations by the likes of Nonotak and Shoplifter) or sights around Houston like the famed Rothko Chapel. See the best Instagrams from Houston this weekend on stage and off, captured by artists and their fans alike.
