Happenings

The Nationalmuseet in Copenhagen is currently showing The World's Glory, which features a wealth of international artifacts collected in the course of expeditions, some of which date as far back as the 17th and 18th centuries. Magical masks from Greenland, African figures, and Burmese Buddhas are on display alongside a number of pieces that have not been exhibited in many years. Composed of objects from the Nationalmuseet's own collections, this exhibition features elements of a show created several years ago by the Nationalmuseet (upon the request of the Spanish Fundación La Caixa) which traveled to five Spanish cities in 2006–07. A parallel showing of The World's Glory, also featuring elements of this previous Spanish exhibition, will be on view at the Kongernes Jelling, June 7 – October 19.
