More from Edvard Munch
"I admire how you let your body and my body die in your love—but you must forgive me if I do not feel the heat of this love in myself."
"To be an artist is to live with doubt."
"I wanted to show that behind the outer facade of human beings, there is a whole world of emotions and thoughts."
"Just as Leonardo da Vinci studied human anatomy and dissected corpses, so I try to dissect souls."
"For as long as I can remember I have suffered from a deep sense of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art."
About Edvard Munch (1863-1944)
Norwegian Expressionist painter whose The Scream (1893) became the iconic image of modern existential dread. Closely associated with James Ensor (Belgian Expressionist peer) and Egon Schiele (younger Expressionist heir). For an intellectual contrast, see Pierre-Auguste Renoir, French Impressionist (1841-1919) — Munch and Renoir were exact contemporaries painting the same Belle Époque from opposite emotional poles — Renoir's dappled-light bourgeois pleasure and Munch's anxiety-soaked bourgeois terror are the late-19th-century painting's two halves. The same world; the cleanest emotional inversion.
