About the book
Through a diverse and complex practice, 'Superflex' challenges the traditional confines and expectations of art and the exhibition space. 'Superkilen' (2011) a major public park project in one of Copenhagen's most diverse neighbourhoods was developed through collaboration with local residents from over 50 countries. 'Superflex' employed a strategy they call "extreme participation" to engage the community and create a unifying urban space with a distinct international identity. In contrast, 'Hospital Equipment' (2014) highlights the role of context in the definition of artistic practice. Consisting of an installation of surgical equipment dispatched directly from gallery to conflict zone, the work oscillates from "readymade" artwork to potentially lifesaving, functional object.
