The Modern Breakthrough

For upper-secondary schools, HF and adult education centres

The rejection of the academic traditions of the Danish Golden Age marked a major shift in Danish art: The Modern Breakthrough. This programme explores a period when new ideas and public debate brought art into closer dialogue with contemporary society. P.S. Krøyer’s portrait of Georg Brandes at the lectern provides the starting point for a discussion with students about the political and intellectual currents of the time.

P.S. Krøyer: 'Portræt af Georg Brandes som foredragsholder', (1901)
