MUNCH invites you to the spectacular 4 April opening of Kiyoshi Yamamoto’s You Are What You Is – a sensory experience in which visitors play a starring role. Known for his colourful, norm-busting artistry, Yamamoto will transform the museum into a living stage where fabrics, light and movement fuse into a dynamic narrative.
Experience a total installation as Kerstin Brätsch takes over the 9th floor at MUNCH, from 14 March – 3 August. With the exhibition MƎTAATEM, she explores painting as a medium, playing between the physical and the spiritual. Brätsch invites visitors to enter her enigmatic, sensual and groundbreaking artistic universe, with works shown in Norway for the first time.
On 15 February, MUNCH launches an exhibition by one of the most significant artists of our time: Georg Baselitz. Feet First is Norway’s biggest ever exhibition by the German artist. The entire 3rd floor of the museum is given over to his monumental paintings and drawings.
Artist Kim Hankyul and mediator Stephanie Serrano Sundby have been selected to take part in the fifth edition of SOLO OSLO. This series is part of MUNCH's commitment to contemporary art, and contributes to developing the local art scene by giving newly established artists and mediators an opportunity to develop their practice.
MUNCH offers a spectacular range of exhibitions, activities and experiences for young and adult art enthusiasts. The museum challenges the senses, touches the heart, and engages with themes of life and death, dramatic turning points in the world, and ongoing societal debates on war, the green transition, and artificial intelligence.
Vanessa Baird (b. 1963) has established herself as a key figure in Norwegian art with her uncompromising and expressive style, gaining significant international recognition. Her art, in which the personal is always political, makes her a beloved rebel for a wide audience. Now, she takes over MUNCH, in the museum’s largest ever presentation of a living Norwegian artist.
