From February 11 to June 2, 2025, Palazzo Bonaparte in Piazza Venezia in Rome, will host a very interesting exhibition dedicated to the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch. Precursor of Expressionism, he was one of the greatest exponents of modern art and symbolism of the nineteenth century.
With one hundred works from the Munch Museum in Oslo, the exhibition, curated by Patricia G. Berman with the patronage of the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Rome, tells the story of the artist’s human journey.
Among the works on display, we can admire one of the lithographic versions of “The Scream” (1895) and the paintings “The Death of Marat”, “Starry Night” (1922–19249), “The girls on the Bridge” (1927), “Melancholy” (1900–1901) and “Dance on the Beach” (1904).
