What is Nordic art, and where does it stand internationally today? 

In this conversation, we hear from four experts who all work with positioning Nordic art and artists on the global stage. Janné Sirén is the initiator behind the AKG Nordic Art and Culture Initiative which aims to develop North America's leading collection of contemporary art from the Nordic region. Jennifer Ramkalawon is the curator behind the British Museum's recent exhibition on Nordic works on paper. They are joined in conversation by the Danish gallerist Nicolai Wallner, who recently decided to position his gallery's international program to focus on Nordic artists, and Ruben Steinum, responsible for positioning Norwegian art abroad.
