A conversation between Lars Jensen and Lotte Faarup, who i.a. will shed light on what the migrant crisis in 2015 meant and means. The migrant crisis can, for example, be used to draw threads back to our past as a colonial power and to the 19th century’s patriotic narrative of the nation state, where the narrative of Danish identity and homeland is cultivated. The conversation will be about the past, present and future, unequal distributions of goods, and what it means to be Danish today.<\/p>\n
The theatrical performance WHO IS THAT BANKS takes place in the present in a fictional Denmark Collection, where themes such as inequality and Danishness come under loving and critical treatment.<\/p>\n
