Description
Munch's Missing! Find the artist hidden in 12 vibrant illustrated scenes which are inspired by the artist's life, and the themes in his art. Spot him on the hill where he famously heard that resounding scream; find him hidden on stage amongst actors performing an Ibsen play, and search him out in the forest near his home in Ekely. Every scene is jammed with artists and creatives who have been influenced by Munch.
While the magical illustrations by Celyn Brazier offer a playful introduction to the artist, they are a unique piece of art in themselves. Accompanying text opens up the stories behind the illustrations, and explores further Munch's life and art, and the influence he had.
This raucous art journey celebrates the startling relevance of Munch who brought us the selfie and liberated us to scream out!
