Danish Originals is a podcast spotlighting cultural figures and personalities, and explores the intersection of art, innovation and creativity, bridging Denmark and the US. Each episode invites guests to reflect on the enduring power of an artwork from Denmark's National Gallery, and to explore how their journeys are fueled by vision and ambition.

Co-presented by the American Friends of Statens Museum for Kunst (AFSMK) and Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK), Danish Originals is funded 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.
