The show intends partly to take part in globalisation and partly to limit the focus to visual arts and the plethora it represents. The exhibition accomplishes this by presenting six selected artists, all Korean residents, and thus in a Danish perspective providing the Danish audience with an opportunity of experiencing how a group of contemporary Korean visual artists work. The artists utilize an international form language in installations, conceptual art, and videos while at the same time researching into developing and refining these expressions.

Between the 8th and 11th centuries, the Vikings surged from their Scandinavian homeland to trade, plunder, explore, and invade, from Newfoundland to Baghdad. They are alternately seen as great seafarers and desperate outcasts, noble heathens and oafish pirates, the last pagans and the first of the modern Europeans. This concise study of Viking history aligns medieval chronicles, Norse sagas, and Muslim accounts with modern genetic profiling and climatology. It explains why the Danish king Harald Bluetooth lent his name to a 21st-century wireless technology; which future saint laughed as she buried foreign ambassadors alive; and how the Vikings ultimately became us.
