    NY CARLSBERG GLYPTOTEK MUSEUM World-famous Art Museum in Copenhagen boosts comfort performance with Case Study Honeywell Forge Digitized Maintenance* *Formerly Outcome Based Service (OBS) The Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek museum in Copenhagen houses over 10,000 works of art, primarily divided between ancient antiquities and Danish and French sculpture as well as painting from the 19th century, including works by Auguste Rodin, Toulouse-Lautrec, Manet, Monet, Renoir, Cezanne and Gauguin. BACKGROUND First opened to the public in 1897, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek added two other wings in 1906 and 1996, connected by a domed Winter Garden. The museum is a cultural magnet, with music concerts, poetry readings, lectures and debates regularly taking place in its auditorium and the surrounding halls and galleries. PROJECT OVERVIEW With its core buildings constructed over a 100-year period starting in the 19th century, the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek wanted to take advantage of advanced technology and actionable insights to improve energy efficiency and to enhance the experience of staff and visitors. Creating the right environment was key to ensuring the performance of the museum and the preservation of its valuable contents. Honeywell has provided its Honeywell Forge Digitized Maintenance service for predictive maintenance along with its Enterprise Buildings Integrator (EBI) platform to improve the overview of the museum’s environment systems and to change its planned maintenance programme into a more efficient and cost-effective predictive maintenance programme. 2 | buildings.honeywell.com | Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek Museum 2020 CUSTOMER OBJECTIVES • Improve the system overview and reduce system downtime. • Enhance the museum’s comfort performance for staff and visitors.

  • Archaeology of Denmark and Sweden 23 – 30 September 2019 from £2295.00
    Archaeology of Denmark and Sweden 23 – 30 September 2019 from £2295.00 The neighbouring Nordic nations of Sweden and Denmark offer a host of archaeological and historical sites, from Neolithic megaliths to Viking forts, from fairytale castles to a magnificent royal warship. We begin in Uppsala in Sweden, with visits to the archaeological sites at Gamla Uppsala and Anundshög and the baroque Skokloster Castle. In Stockholm we tour the excellent Historical Museum and visit the Vasa Museum, which houses the heavily armed and richly decorated royal warship which sank on its maiden voyage in 1628. A relaxing high-speed rail journey follows as we travel from Stockholm to Malmö in the south of Sweden. Here we tour the Osterlen region, with visits to the megalithic monuments known as Ales Stenar before crossing the Öresund Bridge to Copenhagen. We have a day touring the Danish capital, including the renaissance castle of Rosenborg Slot, then transfer to Aarhus in mainland Denmark. From here we visit the Moesgård Viking Museum and the Viking Castle at Fyrkat, learning much about the real story behind those notorious Norsemen. We also come face to face with some former inhabitants of the region as we visit Silkeborg Museum, home to the ‘bog bodies’, the amazingly well-preserved remains of a man and woman who died here around 350BC. Itinerary Monday 23 September 2019 We depart this morning on a direct flight from Manchester to Stockholm Arlanda in Sweden (provisional times with SAS: 0945/1345). On arrival we transfer by coach to Uppsala and a visit to the archaeological site at Gamla Uppsala.

    Final Syllabus Ancient Art and Archaeology Instructor: Thyge C. Bro Credits: 3 credit course Majors: Archaeology, Art History, Classics, History B3: Tuesdays and Fridays 11:40 – 13:00 Class-room: F24 - 406 Ancient Art and Archeology: The Copenhagen Collections DIS – Study Abroad in Scandinavia | Related Disciplines: Art History, Classics Final Syllabus This course focuses on the art and archaeology of ancient Greece and Rome from c. 1000 B.C. to c. A.D. 300, as it can be experienced through the collections in museums in Copenhagen. Stylistic and iconographical developments, as well as cultural meaning and historical context will be emphasized. The students will have the unique opportunity to study some of the finest collections of Greek and Roman art outside Greece and Italy. A substantial part of this course will take place observing firsthand the Collections of the Danish National Museum and the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek. Both museums are well known for their collections: the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek for its Greek sculptures and Roman portraits, and the National Museum for its Greek vases. Both have large collections of all kinds of objects from the ancient Mediterranean. By studying in these world-class museums, student will also gain a better understanding of musicological issues and methodology. Over the centuries a unique art and architecture developed and matured in first Greece and later in the Roman Empire. The many aspects of ancient Greek art can best be studied through two media: vase painting and sculpture. Greek vase painting developed over time; changing pattern of color and shape, showing gods and heroes, and is our best illustration to scenes from daily life.
