Edvard Munch. A Poem of Life, Love and Death

Description

Edvard Munch. A Poem of Life, Love and Death, edito da Thames & Hudson, offre una prospettiva tutta nuova sull’arte di Edvard Munch. Questo esteso volume contiene oltre 100 opere di Munch, tra cui alcuni dei suoi dipinti e disegni più celebri e delle sue stampe meno conosciute, ma anche i sorprendenti tentativi dell’artista nel campo della scrittura creativa! Il libro, inoltre, include sette saggi di approfondimento sul pensiero filosofico e scientifico di Munch.

Published to accompany a major exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay, Edvard Munch: A Poem of Life, Love and Death presents about a hundred works—paintings, drawings, prints, and engraved blocks—reflecting the diversity of Munch’s practice. Seven essays explore the artist in his philosophical and scientific milieu and the places that shaped the man and his art, as well as offering a rare glimpse of Munch’s attempts at creative writing. They also examine the historical evolution of his monumental Frieze of Life series and the world-famous Scream. This publication invites readers to revisit the painter’s work in its entirety by following the thread of an ever-inventive pictorial thinking: a vision that is both fundamentally coherent, even obsessive, and at the same time constantly renewed.
