SUPERFLEX took over Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall with Hyundai Commission: SUPERFLEX: One Two Three Swing!, a large-scale installation that explored how we interpret and engage with the increasingly complex world around us, in 2017 and 2018. Suggesting three states of experiences—apathy, production, and movement—for the state of apathy, a large pendulum suspended from the ceiling and swung above the sloping entrance with a carpet in a color scheme inspired by British currency. The far end of the hall was the state of production with a factory station for the swing seats to be assembled, stamped and stored. Emerging from the state of production and extending beyond the gallery walls, an orange line connected dozens of three-seated swings throughout the Turbine Hall, continuing on to the landscape outside the museum. The work invites audiences to combat social apathy through collaborative action, joining together on the count of...One Two Three Swing! It further explores the potential of energy generated by social movements, drawing unexpected connections within, between and beyond.

Hyundai Commission: SUPERFLEX: One Two Three Swing! was curated by Donald Hyslop, Head of Regeneration & Community Partnerships, Tate Modern, with Synthia Griffin, Curator of Regeneration & Community Partnerships, Tate Modern and Valentina Ravaglia, Assistant Curator, Tate Modern.
