The creator of art’s most haunting and iconic face. A radical father of Expressionism. Norway’s answer to Vincent van Gogh. But who was Edvard Munch?
Discover this pioneering artist as the British Museum lifts the veil on his life and works in the largest show of his prints in the UK for nearly 50 years.
“We do not want pretty pictures to be hung on drawing-room walls. We want… an art that arrests and engages. An art of one’s innermost heart.” – Edvard Munch
