Program Description

Event Details

Edvard Munch, famous for four versions of The Scream, was a prolific Norwegian painter and printmaker.  This talk will look at his fascinating and unconventional life -- he was damaged by alcoholism, hallucinations, social isolation and paranoia -- as well as his psychologically evocative paintings.  Munch's need to explore situations brimming with emotional content and expressive energy characterizes all of his astonishing work.  Join art lecturer Janet Cohen Mandel for this talk on Zoom, which will prepare you well to enjoy the Clark Art Institute's Munch exhibition, on view in Williamstown, MA until October 15!
