Edvard Munch Livres

"Organisée en collaboration avec le Munch-museet d'Oslo, l'exposition "Edward Munch, l'oeil moderne" propose un dialogue novateur entre la célèbre oeuvre picturale de l'artiste au XXe siècle et son intérêt pour les formes de représentation les plus modernes : la photographie, le cinéma, mais aussi le renouveau de la scène théâtrale. Avec près de 270 illustrations, 16 essais de spécialistes internationaux ainsi que des traductions de textes de Munch inédits en français, cette publication révèle la modernité du grand artiste-norvégien et s'impose comme la nouvelle référence éditoriale sur le sujet."--P.

Published to accompany an exhibition of the same name at the National Academy of Design in Norway, Edvard Munch and Harald Sohlberg: Landscapes of the Mind compares the two symbolist painters' landscape works. Sadly, Sohlberg is not as recognizable a name to U.S. audiences as is Munch, but in placing his work opposite that of his countryman, a rich understanding of the psychic arena in which each moved emerges. The mostly color reproductions of the art in the exhibition are of remarkable quality.

For Edvard Munch (1863-1944), painting was an act of self-liberation. His treatments of fear, desperation, and death still exert a powerful visual and psychological effect on modern viewers. Of all Munch's paintings, "The Scream" (1893), representing a figure tortured by horror, is the most well-known-and certainly one of the most expressive. The artist reflected his innermost feelings in his work: "In reality, my art is a free confession, an attempt to clarify to myself my own relation to life..." Although Edvard Munch cannot be clearly identified with any single movement, he is deemed a pioneer of Expressionism.

The book offers a deep exploration of Edvard Munch's thoughts through a collection of his letters, drafts, notes, and literary texts. It provides valuable insights into the artist's mindset and creative process, enhancing the understanding of his most iconic images. Readers will discover the connections between Munch's written reflections and his visual art, revealing the emotional and intellectual depths that shaped his work.
