Performance and Play in Hans Christian Andersen’s Art and Life
“Whom I have seen and spoken to just once, I remember their faces clearly. I keep a reflection of them in my mind. On the other hand, my own face, though our Lord and all the people know that I look in the mirror often enough, I cannot remember it at all.” (Hans Christian Andersen: Levnedsbogen, 1832)
In this talk by Henrik Lübker, we will explore the blurred boundaries between performance and identity, between becoming and being in Hans Christian Andersen’s art and life.
