We are very pleased to announce that Superflex is participation in CPH:DOX with Psychoplankton (2022).

March 15 to March 26. 
Kunsthal Charlottenborg

Once again, SUPERFLEX will participate at the Copenhagen international documentary film festival CPH:DOX.  As part of the line-up in the festival’s INTER:ACTIVE exhibition at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, the interactive animation Psychoplankton (2022) will be available for the first time to the Copenhagen audience.

Through VR technology, Psychoplankton takes the viewer on a transcendental journey from the macro to the microscopic world, gradually morphing their perspective to the one of a phytoplankton: creatures too small to see at naked eye but able to form masses large enough to be seen from space.

Psychoplankton was developed in close collaboration with Khora Contemporary and The Animation Workshop. Commissioned by Viborg Kunsthal / Viborg UNESCO City of Media Art. Supported by the Danish Art Council, Obelske Familiefond Augustinus Foundation and Viborg Municipality.

We are very pleased to announce that Gardar Eide Einarsson's Not Yet Titled (Traffic cones) (2011) and Liberty Forever (2015) are now part of the permanent collection at The Modern.

In Gardar Eide Einarsson's works, the ideas of personal liberty, belonging, inclusion/ exclusion, and propaganda are explored with a view to what role culture plays in ideological systems and how artists and art institutions both are implicated in the dominant structures while at the same time perhaps offering a way around and outside them. He addresses this subject matter through diverse media such as installations, paintings, sculptures, etc. in a deadpan and often humorous way and with an awareness of the institutional context of contemporary art.

On view now. New Acquisitions, The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth.

We are very pleased to announce that Rebecca Lindsmyr's 'Untitled' (2020) is now part of the permanent collection at S.M.A.K, Museum Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst in Ghent, BE.

The work of Rebecca Lindsmyr evolves from an interest in the complexities of the embodied self - as simultaneously being a subject of experience and an object in the world. These dual, or multiple vantage points render the self sensitive to relations of power, as well as historically, politically, socially, and emotionally shifting understandings of the body. Due to this sensitivity, the embodied self becomes a mirror of its time and context; as time penetrates it and continuously (re)shapes it.

Newly released, “Tom Sandberg: Photographs” is the first major publication dedicated to one of Norway’s most important photographers.

Working in a signature modulating gray scale, the late Norwegian photographer Tom Sandberg spent decades rendering the world according to an exacting vision, training his eye on the shapes and forms of the everyday—dark abstractions of asphalt and sea, the hard edges of an automobile, an ominously curved tunnel, an anonymous figure casting a shadow—to plumb the nature of photographic seeing.

His pictures are subtle yet transformative, studies of stillness that radiate mystery. A perfectionist in the darkroom, Sandberg was acutely sensitive to the rich spectrum of black and white, and his handmade prints, at times printed on aluminum and canvas, project a powerful physical presence. Although Sandberg is esteemed in his native Norway and throughout Scandinavia and Europe, his oeuvre is less known in the United States and other parts of the world. This monograph, produced in close collaboration with the Tom Sandberg Foundation in Oslo, is a long-overdue celebration of this distinguished artist.
