Discover the extraordinary world of Edvard Munch in this thought-provoking lecture led by Tina Corri, exploring the Norwegian artist whose emotionally charged paintings captured the complexities of the human experience. Inspired by Munch’s Frieze of Life, a series he described as ‘impressions from the life of the soul’, the compelling exhibition at Tate Modern examines universal themes of love, loss, loneliness and desire. Tina will offer an engaging interpretation of how Munch used colour, composition and powerful visual storytelling to express the inner struggles that lie beneath the surface of everyday life. Looking at the fascinating connections between Munch’s art and the language of cinema, the lecture will uncover new ways of understanding his radical approach to identity, emotion and human relationships. Featuring iconic paintings and prints, alongside photography, experimental film and rarely seen archival material, the exhibition reveals the many dimensions of Munch’s creative vision. This lecture will reveal why his deeply personal yet profoundly relatable work continues to resonate today, speaking to a modern world increasingly shaped by self-expression, emotional vulnerability and our desire to be understood.
