To mark 75 years since 22 Greenlandic children were sent to Denmark in what later became known as Eksperimentet, Nordatlantisk Hus opens a special exhibition on the subject, titled Eksperimentbørnene - De sidste vidner.
A central part of the exhibition is the unveiling of Mathilde Fenger's monumental painting Eksperimentbørnene - De sidste vidner. The work is a group portrait of the five surviving children from the experiment, putting faces to people whose lives were shaped by the politics and ideas that marked relations between Denmark and Greenland in the early 1950s.
After the exhibition, the painting will have a permanent home at Det Grønlandske Hus in Odense, as a lasting witness to this shared chapter of Greenlandic and Danish history.
