BFCK is a shop, a brand, and a performance. Carl Knif and Blaue Frau’s Sonja Ahlfors & Joanna Wingren open an exclusive shop where they sell the luxury brand BFCK. For 72 hours Ahlfors, Wingren & Knif sleep, eat, and exist in their luxury shop.
The audience can visit the store several times during 2–5 March 2024. Each visit provides a new insight into the BFCK brand and how shop assistants Ahlfors, Wingren and Knif deal with the increasingly stressful situation. How will they deal with the pressure to sell, the lack of sleep, and the increasingly dilapidated store?
BFCK is the second part in Blaue Frau and Carl Knif’s series of hybrid performances that explore what happens when art is created entirely on the terms of capitalism and the market economy. What happens to art and culture if everything has a price? Who is willing to pay and how much? What happens when supply and demand do not meet?
