The art group A Kassen formed in Copenhagen in 2004. They like to start from given circumstances that already exist in the place where the art is created. A Kassen often uses strategies of sabotage or altering details in public spaces, on buildings or in the functional infrastructure of architecture. Many works are based on repetition, reflection, displacement or change of scale. These discreet but tangible interventions in everyday life can sometimes go unnoticed.

The viewer plays a crucial role in A Kassen’s artworks, especially in public environments, where encounters with art often happen unplanned. Their choice of materials and method can vary from one artwork to another, depending on the circumstances. At times they create spatial installations or interventions in landscapes, sometimes they work with photography or sculpture.

A Kassen consists of Christian Bretton-Meyer, Morten Steen Hebsgaard, Søren Petersen and Tommy Petersen.
