Podcast Series 4

The Nordics Uncovered: Critical Voices from Greenland

This podcast series is on Greenland's art and history. Key researchers choose important objects or pieces of art and explain why they have been significant to them - both in their career and their lives.

An art historian, an archeologist and a PhD in Arctic Studies discuss the state of Greenland today through looking back at their own work. The editor of nordics.info Nicola Witcombe interviews Nivi Christensen (Director of Nuuk Art Museum), Kirstine Eiby Møller (indigenous Arctic archeologist), and Rosannguaq Rossen (Head of Department, Institute for Culture, Language and History at the University of Greenland).
