Ep 56: The Munch Bunch


Listen Later

The band's back together! And this time, Elisabeth Condon, Jennifer Coates and I discuss "Edvard Munch: Trembling Earth," a recent Munch survey exhibition at the Clark Institute. We each chose a single painting/print to discuss within the context of Munch's Monistic melancholy, love of clumps, and repetitious reveries.


Thank you to The New York Studio School for sponsoring this episode. Deadlines for MFA/Certificate are approaching Jan 15.


Elisabeth spoke about: "White Night"  oil on canvas 1901

Jennifer spoke about: "The Magic Forest" oil on canvas 1919-25

Amy spoke about "Towards the Forest II" color woodcut 1915
