Superflex

Superflex

Superflex are a Danish art collective who use artistic strategies to reveal the unseen power relations which underlie everyday life. Their projects intervene in reality in playful ways that question commercialism, value and culture.  Here is a taste of their work...

Unlike conventional shops, COPYSHOP defies intellectual property with open-source products and space for people to photocopy anything they like. It’s also a franchise so if you fancy, you can set up one yourself.

In their work Today We Don’t Use the Word Dollars, Superflex banned the employees of a bank in Auckland from using the word “dollars” for one day.

The Financial Crisis (Sessions I – V) was created for Frieze Film 2009 and uses the framework of a series of therapy sessions to articulate the underlying psychoses of the current financial crisis.

Foreigners Please Don’t Leave Us Alone with the Danes was fly-posted on streets in Sweden, Denmark and Austria.

FREEBEER: the world’s first ever open source beer!
