Edvard Munch: Beyond the Scream

Edvard Munch’s The Scream is one of the most iconic images in modern art—but it represents only a fraction of the Norwegian artist’s powerful and provocative work. This session explores Munch’s life and career, from his early struggles and personal tragedies to his innovative approaches to painting and printmaking. We’ll look closely at his portraits and self-portraits, symbolist landscapes, and haunting graphic works. As we do so, we’ll trace how he gave visual form to themes of love, anxiety, illness, and death. Join us to discover the depth and complexity of an artist who helped shape the modern imagination—far beyond The Scream.
