The principal operators in Denmark are institutions and centres acting on behalf of the Ministry of Culture, with the Danish Arts Agency acting as the planning and coordinating body, in close collaboration with Danish diplomatic missions abroad and the Danish Cultural Institute. The various tasks delegated to the Danish Arts Agency make this agency a gateway to Danish art and culture. Inquiries may be directed to the respective centres and bodies (please select from the menu above), or to the Danish Arts Agency, International Coordination (contact details in collumn to the left).

The Danish Arts Council provides financial support for the communication of Danish literature, music, performing arts and visual arts, and awards grants on application to support activities such as the participation of Danish artists in events abroad, translations of Danish literature, and visiting programmes for artistic or cultural representatives from abroad. The Danish Arts Council also supports the presentation of significant foreign art in Denmark. Organisations and institutions based outside Denmark may apply for grants from the Danish Arts Council to subsidise the presentation of Danish artists in their own countries, or to support international cultural exchanges.

Danish culture and language
Denmark was settled already 10,000 years ago, when the ice retreated from Scandinavia. Danes descend from various Germanic tribes, including the Jutes and Angles who settled England in the 5th century. There is a small German minority living in southern Jutland and a Danish minority living in North Germany. Danish is a Germanic language of the Nordic branch, mutually intelligible (with some practice) with Norwegian and Swedish. The kingdom of Denmark includes also the autonomous areas of Greenland (area: 2.2 mill. km², pop. 53,000) and Faroe Islands (area: 1,400 km², pop. 48,000). The inhabitants speak a language (Faroese) resembling Icelandic and some Western Norwegian dialects. Eskimos speaking Greenlandic (a language based on a mid-19th century creation of a single literary language out of many Inuit dialects) form the largest group of Greenlanders; the inhabitants of Faroe Islands descend from the Viking settlers who arrived in the 9th century and the Irish monks and slaves who also made it to the Island. As can be expected Danish culture could be called more Central European in character than that of other Nordic countries. Particularly it could be noted that mentality and

    Working environment - Danish work culture
    In Denmark, the working environment is informal and democratic
    Danes have a reputation for being informal and they favour a humorous and extroverted tone at work, danish work culture. However, this relatively laid back social convention does not prevent the Danes from being well prepared, highly focused on results and very serious about the work process. Meetings are expected to commence at the agreed time, and will normally start and end with a handshake.
    Meetings constitute an important part of Danish business culture, and are the most usual way of keeping colleagues and employees up to date. Danes prefer meetings to be short, well structured and with a preponderance of factual information. Paperwork will generally be kept at a minimum. However, it is seen as a matter of course that meetings proceed according to a written agenda and that they result in a written summary recording the most important decisions and agreements.
    The informal attitude of the Danes is expressed in a generally relaxed dress code. While many men prefer a suit and tie, it is not uncommon to see businessmen in more casual clothing, especially when meeting contacts they already know. Women also dress relatively casually.

    Dance Troupe Welcome to Utamaduni, Denmark.
    Friendship and cultural exchange with Tanzania, Africa. The name "Utamaduni", a swahili word meaning "culture", was adopted by the dance troupe after a Danish cultural exchange with the Sukuma tribe in Tanzania in 1977. The exchange project in which the Danes also performed their traditional dance, was called "Daraja la Utamaduni" / "The cultural bridge". From that embryonic beginning of cultural exchange, rich and fertile images of African culture were absorbed by the "Danes" - all thanks to the Sukuma people. Since then Utamaduni has woven a tapestry of dance, drum, and song rhythms into a bond of friendship with local farmers and handicraft artists, and has inspired more than 25 Danish dance troupes that meet weekly for dance and workshops. Every year we arrange a gathering for people with interest in african culture, music and dance. We are 4-500 people who meet in the forest of Ramten Skov every year in week number 30, since 17 years now! The Utamaduni Dance Troupe brings alive Africa, right here on the spot, with its colorful and expressive performance.

    Within the last 20-25 years the conditions for the writing of history has been the object of an intense discussion (cf. Iggers 1997, Treitler 1999 and what is often called 'New Musicology'). Popular music studies have been part of a larger questioning of existing canons and constructions of history but have not offered any alternative models since Chambers (1985) and partly Grossberg (1992). In the meantime the larger mediation of the history of rock has exploded both in the form of books in the journalistic genre, textbooks for the ages 15-18, TV-series and museums in the US, England and Holland. 2.2 International relations and the notion of 'Danishness' in Danish rock culture
