🇮🇹 MUNCH takes Milan! We’re thrilled about the opening of the "Edvard Munch. Inner Fire" exhibition, now on display at Palazzo Reale (@palazzorealemilano) in partnership with Arthemisia (@arthemisiaarte). Through seven sections, the exhibition delves into Munch’s remarkable work ethic and inner fire, which fueled his creation of thousands of prints and paintings over his lifetime. The selected works span from 1880 to his death in 1944, marking 80 years since his passing. 😱 100 of our works, including some of Munch’s most iconic motifs, will be on view until January 26th, 2025. In February, the exhibition will travel to Palazzo Bonaparte (@mostrepalazzobonaparte) in Rome. 🔥 "Edvard Munch: Inner Fire" marks Milan’s first Munch exhibition in over 40 years. Don’t miss it! #MUNCH #EdvardMunch #MunchMilano #Arthemisia

🔥 #OnThisDay in 1919, a major fire broke out in the Grønland area of Kristiania, the city now known as Oslo. Edvard Munch, who often depicted current events in his art, was among the onlookers on September 17th. The intense scenes left such an impact on him that they became the subject of this painting, as well as multiple sketches, drawings, and a lithograph. Captivated by fires, Munch would seize every opportunity to paint them. Eight years later, during a large fire in his Ekely neighbourhood, «he came running with his canvas and paint box and took up position so close to the spot that the firemen had to ask him to move,» as recounted by his friend Rolf Stenersen, who was present with him. 🎨 Fire at Grønland (a borough in Oslo) (1919-1920) might be one of Munch’s lesser-known works, yet it remains a vivid portrayal of the infamous fire, capturing the moment in time. 🔗 Explore our digital archive of Munch’s works by following the link in bio. #MUNCH #EdvardMunch #ArtHistory #Oslo

Step into Edvard Munch’s former atelier, where this year’s "SOLO OSLO" artist, Constance Tenvik (@constancetenvik), is preparing her upcoming MUNCH exhibition! 🎨 The atelier, completed on Munch’s Ekely estate in 1929, served as his workspace until his passing in 1944. Today, its mission is to support emerging artists, offering them a dedicated space to develop their own artistic practice. 📣 Opening on 28.09, Tenvik will transform the 10th floor gallery at MUNCH with her new exhibition of sculptures, digital jacquard weavings, and a video filmed at Ekely. The "SOLO OSLO" series is part of MUNCH’s commitment to contemporary art, and to developing a new generation of artists. It is supported by Talent Norge (@talentnorge) and Canica. 🔗 Read more about the upcoming exhibition on our website. #MUNCH #EdvardMunch #Ekely #ConstanceTenvik #SOLOSOLO

Edvard Munch travels to Copenhagen, Denmark! 🇩🇰 For the newly opened "Against All Odds – Historical Women and New Algorithms" exhibition, MUNCH has lent SMK a valuable item from its collection: a portrait of a young Munch by the Norwegian artist Asta Nørregaard. This exhibition honours Nordic female artists active from 1870 to 1910, who despite their succsess, quietly disappeared from history 👩‍🎨 Critics often dismissed Nørregaard’s portrait style as overly polished. Despite being an outsider, she always stayed true to her artistic vision. The 1885 portrait of Munch is among her most renowned works. Originally belonging to the Munch family, it became part of the MUNCH collection after the passing of Munch’s sister, Inger, in 1952. Prior to its departure for Copenhagen, the portrait was in a deteriorated state. As it had never been restored previously, paper conservators dedicated several months to its intensive repair. 📣 "Against All Odds – Historical Women and New Algorithms" runs at SMK until 08.12.2024. #MUNCH #EdvardMunch #SMK #ArtNews
