Kirsti Muinonen has something in her colorful paintings that could be called “visual dramaturgy” - they are clearly stories with beginning, a middle-space and an end, a wonderful and accomplished artist.

The Norwegian artist Edvard Munch has had the misfortune of being labeled a woman-hater. Tempering that myth is the mission of this catalogue and the accompanying exhibition. The pages that follow provide extensive evidence of Munch’s varied relationships with women who were members of his family, friends, lovers, patrons, and subjects of his work. Some of these alliances were loving, some were social, and at least one passion ended in bitter tragedy. This book places the artist’s friendships into a unified perspective, belying the myth that Munch was a mysogynist.

“Nobody has ever written so brilliantly on Munch’s life and creative power.” Gløersen, a close friend of the artist, poured over old school books, journals, and letters from Munch to write this book. This is an intensely personal portrait of Munch, the man and his art, and should be in the library of everyone with an interest in Norway’s greatest contemporary artist. Of special note are the candid photographs of Munch in his studios and on holiday.

Few artists provide better material for the study of man during years of middle- age crisis than does Edvard Munch. These years cover his life from the age of 39 to 46, during which he endured a purgatory of personal crises, interwoven with drink and extreme nervous tension which gave way finally to fresh consolidation, both personally and artistically. This was marked by abstinence from alcohol and nicotine, and a return home to the cliffs of his native land.

This exhibition focuses on the mid-to latter period of the career of famed Norwegian artist Edvard Munch 1863-1944. Munch had wanted people to experience friezes, a series of pictures in rooms that related to each other as well as to the location. The informative text takes the reader through Munch’s accomplishments at the University’s Aula to his unfinished project for the Oslo City Hall. Additionally this catalogue is a beautifully illustrated part of Munch’s art: drawings and paintings, during the same period, depicting people in everyday life situations.
