Furniture is lifted up by the water, trays of food and drinks start to float around, electrics short circuit and eventually the space becomes completely submerged. The source and the reason of the threat are unseen, but it is certain that there is no escape. Emphasizing this dramatic build-up, \u201cFlooded McDonald\u2019s\u201d makes use of the editing and camerawork of Hollywood disaster movies.<\/p>\n<p>With a diverse and complex practice that engages art, design, commerce and economic structures of dependency, the Copenhagen-based artists collective \u201cSuperflex\u201d: Rasmus Nielsen, Jakob Fenger and Bj\u00f8rnstjerne Christiansen, challenges the role of artists in contemporary society and explore the nature of globalization through ongoing collaborative projects.<\/p>\n<p>Since 1993, they have worked on a series of projects to do with economic forces, democratic production conditions and self organization. The artists have examined alternative energy production methods and commodity production plants in Brazil, Thailand and Europe in their projects both exposing and questioning the existing economic structures.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From 4th of September, until 3rd of October, Kim? \/ RIXC gallery together with\u00a0 The Latvian Centre for\u00a0 Contemporary Art and the Contemporary Art Festival SURVIVAL KIT 2 invites to Danish artists&#8217; collective \u201cSuperflex\u201d film work \u201cFlooded McDonald&#8217;s&#8221; (2006, 20&#8242;). \u201cFlooded McDonald&#8217;s\u201d is a film work in which a life-size replica of the interior of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[32,4,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-32","category-kim-exhibitions","category-past-exhibitions"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Superflex &quot;Flooded McDonald&#039;s&quot; - Kim?
