Description
Edvard Munch: love and angst offers a unique insight into the artist's prints, which played a central role in his creative process. This collection features some of Munch's most intriguing and lesser-known works, created during a period marked by personal turmoil and emotional depth. The artist's early life was shaped by illness, poverty, and family tragedy, influencing the themes of love, loss, and angst that permeate his work. Munch's innovative style, which deviated from traditional portraiture and landscapes, allowed him to evoke powerful emotions through his prints and striking lithographs. Featuring an interview with Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgaard, this book sheds new light on the imagery and production of some of Munch's most captivating prints.
