Munch: Love
and Angst
11 April to 21 July
This collaboration
with Norway’s
Munch Museum is
the biggest UK
exhibition of Munch
prints in almost 50
years. It will
examine some of
the artist’s most
famous prints and
their ability to
capture raw human
emotion.
World renowned
for his beautiful
printmaking, Edvard
Munch used his art
to portray
experiences of the
human condition from love to loneliness.
Perhaps one of the most iconic images
on display, and indeed in art history, will
be a rare lithograph version of The
Scream, the painting which catapulted
Munch to fame during his lifetime. The
exhibition will also pay close attention tothe artist’s travels through Europe, which
in part shaped his artistic vision, with a
small selection of personal postcards
and maps on display to provide and
insight to his many journeys.
