Welcome back to the final installment of our talk with the engaged and enthusiastic director of the Danish National Gallery of Art, Mikkel Bogh. Last week we heard about where Mikkel comes from, and what brought him to his current job. This week we hear about the challenges and compromises one must make in a position like his. He talks about the inherent politics of his job and the role of the state in the day to day affairs of the museum, as well as his goals for the future of the institution. It's a rare chance to hear about the daily life of a museum director, and it's really interesting stuff. Along the way we hear about dealing with cutbacks, finding time to stay passionate about the job, and some really good advice for young artists out there aspiring to a foot in the door. It's a must hear. www.undergang.net

A Passion Intact ft. Mikkel Bogh Part 2

An interesting thing about being an adult in the this crazy world is that at a certain point you realize that you can’t do it all. That is, unless you are Mikkel Bogh. He is the director of The National Gallery of Denmark (Statens Museum for Kunst), and the former head of the Royal Art Academy and he really clarified some things about the upper echelons of art institutions for us. We thought that the system favored the pencil pusher type, the business man, the high school principal, and their role was mostly just to slap reality into the face of artist types and scream we can’t afford it at everybody. Boy were we wrong, at least when it comes to Mikkel. Like everything, passion leads the charge. Join us for part one of an interesting talk about finding a path into art history, the difference between teaching and leading an educational institute and about keeping a passion intact while pursuing a career. www.undergang.net
