Artist income by type of art, main source of income, level of education and unit (DISCONTINUED) - StatBank Denmark

Link to new tabel KUNST9B.

The table shows the number of unique artists. The 2025 population of artists forms the basis for the 2024 reporting year, while the 2023 population forms the basis for the 2022 reporting year. The figures for 2024 therefore cannot be directly compared with the figures for 2022.
