Founded in 1993 by Bjørnstjerne Christiansen (b. 1969), Jakob Fenger (b. 1968) and Rasmus Rosengren Nielsen (b. 1969). Live and work in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Conceived as an expanded collective, SUPERFLEX works with a wide variety of collaborators, from gardeners to engineers to audience members. Engaging with alternative models for the creation of social and economic organisation, their projects have taken the form of energy systems, beverages, sculptures, copies, hypnosis sessions, infrastructure, paintings, plant nurseries, contracts, and public spaces. Taking the idea of collaboration even further, recent works have involved soliciting the participation of other species: the collective has been developing a new kind of urbanism that includes the perspectives of plants and animals, aiming to move society towards interspecies living. For SUPERFLEX, the best idea might come from a fish.
SUPERFLEX has gained international recognition for their projects, with solo exhibitions at the Kunsthalle Basel; Vanabbe Museum, Eindhoven; El Museo Jumex, Mexico City; the Turbine Hall, Tate Modern, London; 21st Century Museum Kanazawa; Copenhagen Contemporary; and elsewhere. The group has participated in international arts biennials such as the Gwangju Biennale in Korea, the Istanbul Biennale, Shanghai Biennale, and in the Utopia Station exhibition at the Venice Biennale.
