Frank,

I totally forgot to write this, at the time you and Carlos were 
discussing Danish surrealists, but there were two extreamly important 
painters:  Wilhelm Freddie, who died a short time ago,  and perhaps 
even more important, but nearly unknown today, Knut R. Hoffmann 
Sonderborg. There is a catalogue (which I have never seen), from 
Germany, of Sonderborg and Karl-Otto Goetz, which must be amazing. I 
have tried to learn if Sonderborg was still alive, but the last 
references people I know have to him are nearly 10 years ago. He was 
living and painting in Germany (Hambourg, I believe), but refusing to 
exhibit.

Hope this gives you someone to research when you get back to Denmark. 
If you come up with anything, please let me know

Wm.
