There’s something so hypnotic to the Danish collective’s videos that, whether the destruction they document is very immediate and tangible or abstract and all but immaterial, we can never stop watching. Their epic 2007 video "Burning Car" puts the televised Yule log to shame with its sensual close-ups and sexy panning shots of an old Mercedes going up in flames. Four-parter "The Financial Crisis" attempts to treat your recession blues with hypnotherapy. This show’s centerpiece is the notorious "Flooded McDonald’s," wherein the three artists created a perfect replica of a McDonald’s franchise and filled it with water. Delicious!
