And each episode opens with each guest reflecting on an artwork from Denmark's National Gallery.Presented by the American Friends of Statens Museum for Kunst (AFSMK), Danish Originals is partially sponsored by Scan Design Foundation and Studio Haslund. Hosted by Tina Jøhnk Christensen, directed by Christian D. Bruun, produced by Teresa Lai, with original music by Joachim Svare. We invite you to subscribe to Danish Originals for weekly episodes.
