He was so afraid of death and yet he died in his sleep. He was terrified of falling mentally ill, yet he was consumed with crippling anxiety and sadness. What a gift to see the world through his eyes, yet it's hard to no feel empathy for the human being suffering behind the canvas.
What a brilliant imformative story of a great artist. Im 85 years old and live in New Zealand, at age 83 during the Covid lockdown thought to my self "Why dont I pick up a brush and paint". It has bought a whole new meaning to my life and I love researching famous artist. In NZ we have a local icon who was also tormented , his paintings frowned upon , but now is the most collectable artist in NZ. Im going to lay down some paint and pay my respects to Edvard. Thank you so much
Hi Eric, thank you for sharing. I'm 56 and thinking I'm too late in life to start being an artist. You're an inspiration and I hope knowing that you've inspired this one guy in the UK brings you some happiness. My father is 85 and also called Eric is depressed at not being a builder any more. I will share your story and try to inspire him to take up some new activity. Happy 2023 to you Eric. Steve

I can relate so much to Munch 😢 Both my parents died so young and so many folks in my life have passed away from suicide or accidents. I don’t know why life has been so difficult but art keeps me occupied and helps to escape
This is why I love this century so mu(n)ch. Great channels talking about master painters like E. Munch, in high quality video format, delivered to your doorstep for free on TH-cam.
Dear Dries Ketells: There is NOTHING For Free on TH-cam TH-cam unwittingly Brainwashes you 24/7/365. That is the Hidden Cost of your Learning on TH-cam. The fact that you think that TH-cam Does NOT Brainwash you just tells me how well it is working. You are a SLAVE To The Grid, until you yourself pull the (umbilical) cord. True Art only begins THEN !!!
Thank you for this short yet packed information about the amazing masters before us. Life is filled with tragedy, suffering, joy, peace, and that's what makes it interesting. I love how artists are so connected to their senses when they paint.
Thank you so much for this. You did an amazing job! Munch was such a prolific artist! Are there any photos of his sculptures? I’m an amateur painter and sculptor and I love learning about other artist.
This was terrific….I had no idea Munch lived till such a fine old age. I’m also amazed at the prolific body of work he left us. Bravo! And THANK YOU!!!!!
I'm rather surprised that I doubt I ever really saw any of his paintings other than the scream. I'm really pleased to see more of his works, and I'd like most of them a great deal.
Having been to the new Munch Museum in Oslo this week, I felt heavily inspired and moved by Munch's work. Wish I could go back already! Thank you so much for this video biography!
Love this biography. In order to destigmatize mental illness using terms like depression, addiction is better than using insane, mental issues, etc., with all the painful losses in his family it's not surprising that some of the family members had extreme grief reactions.
About 15 years ago I saw a Munch exhibit the the MOMA in NYC. Fantastic! I knew of him before that but to see his the breadth of his work there gave me an new appreciation.
Thank you! I saw a lot of his paintings in 2017 at the VMFA. The exhibit was with Jasper John and it had to do with life and aging. It was very inspiring!
Now in these days a new museum are opened, mostly critziced by most people because it is so ugly, and also, there is few pictures of Munch there, just saying
Yesterday I was in a short visit to Oslo and his works led me to look for his life story .. now it is clear to me and many of the questions are already answered in this video ❤
Jeanieart1940 Kowatsch My son also died 16 years ago this month, I’m watching art programs so I can find the courage to also paint again, why don’t do we do this together? We can do it for our sons because we love them so 💚 love lots xxx
I'm terribly sorry for your loss. However I must say, I find it absolutely inspiring to see you offer your love and support to someone in a similar position to you. Hope you both find your way back to the canvas, and that your artistic voices will ring clearer than ever.
@@ArtHistorySchool I'm not one of those who solely promote STEM or the trades. Every child should have art and literature appreciation as part of their education. The old-fashioned liberal arts are essential for being human and humane. Dump that, languages and history and you end up where we are now. Jabbed zombies, herded and culled. I'm so sorry for what's happening in England now. Where's Alfred, or even Canute, when you need them! Thanks, friend.
Norwegian here. Apart from the wrong pernounciation of his name, this is a great and must see rundown of what I consider the most important Norwegian artist ever - if not one of the most important in the world. I lived in Oslo for 20 years, and the thing I miss most living outside now, is going to the Munch Museum. His works will never cease to amaze or make me speachless.
As I mentioned on a previous comment I normally pronounce Munch's name correctly but was persuaded by a friend who'd been to Norway that it was pronounced differently. My mistake. I'm pleased you enjoyed the video, he's one of my favourite artists because he deals with the frailties, hopes, dreams and disasters of life. Not many artists are capable of that. Cheers Paul
I've always considered Munch to be one of my fav painters, mainly because looking at his work helped me step out of my comfort zone as an artist (who mainly just did sketches and colored pencil drawings) and made me experiment with more mixed media in art. In my sophomore year of HS, I actually recreated a couple of his paintings for some art class assignment ("Four Girls in Åsgårdstrand" and "Love and Pain") and I got a perfect score.
Wonderful. Thank you for presenting the breadth and depth of his life and work with sensitivity and insight including locating him within the contexts of geography, history, and personal history. His depictions of of illness, dying, and death and the suffering of those who live it and accompany it ring true from my perspective in a hospital and are enriched and enlivened by your commentary. Well done to Munch and to you.
Thank you for your kind comment. Great artists have the ability to connect and give us insights in the the human condition in all its forms. Munch was a genius.
Pain and anguish are not desired catalysts for anything. But, for great, moving and abundant art, well... I remember as a young child seeing The Scream. It moved me. It still does.
What a beautiful video and paintings from Munch. I now do not understand how come my Art teacher did not emphasize on more works from munch into class. This man was genius! Beautiful paintings! Specially those about the moonlight ... first time seen I wanted to cry!
I really learnt a lot about Munch from this video, I recently read a book by Karl One Knausgaard about Munch (and the author ) but this concise video was an excellent history and the paintings appearance and illustrations add so much, many thanks
I love his Scream. No wonder he painted the Scream 😱. My Twin Georg had a troubled childhood. Then his relationship with women and me. Now he’s transforming himself from his heart ache and trauma. He even had clinical depression. I love him
This is wonderful. When I lived in New York I was privileged to see some of the greatest paintings of the 19th and 20th centuries, and some of them were Munch's. The size and blazing colors belie the themes of some paintings. A very interesting artist. Thank you.
I want to tell you I really enjoy these, As a life long artist and art history buff. I like the fresh way that you tell us about the artist's life. And I love your accent I think it brings something to the presentation, I have worked for several Museums around the world and I have always shunned the consenting attitude of making people feel stupid or ignorant for not knowing or pronouncing names or places differently based on their culture thank you
I enjoyed your insights into Edvard Munch very much. He is one of my favourite artists and I respect him as a pioneer of Expressionism. I just wanted to mention his name is pronounced 'Moonc' the 'h' is silent.
Marvellous video. Even when I have seen more of the artist's work and read about about their work and life, as with Munch, I see and learn so much more.
Another great video. I saw that scream 😱 picture many times but didn’t know the story behind it. Love your videos.I feel i am in art history class ,learning a lot without any stress. Thank you so much 😊 Thank you so much.
It's interesting that with many of the more famous artists that they start with mainstream, safe and comfortable imagery, and over time, grow and experiment with their images descending into abstract chaos and rawness. They all seem to have shattered lives one way or another, and experience life struggles many wouldn't have been able to hide from, let alone embrace and derive power and direction from.
I think many artists start by working in the mainstream as you say, but they soon find that great art explores the human condition in all its variations. Creativity is very demanding and some can't cope, but in many ways the great art of the world explores the depths of the human mind. This exploration probably keeps them sane.
Very interesting. Was recently in Oslo, and visited the new Munch Museum in the downtown of the city. Saw many of the works in this video. Such a sad life, it is reflected in his work. I hadn’t been familiar with his work, except for “The Scream” before going to the museum. The video was most informative.
My second vid in the row. Cezanne and then Munch. All their work can be seen at the Courtauld Galery and Tate Modern. Again this video is very informative. Thank you so much for such an excellent work.
Nice work as usual and thank you again because apart Claude Monet or Van Gogh or I know their lives, Edward Munch, apart for his paintings, I never learned too much about his life, thank you again Artist In School, you are the best.
If you visit Fram museum you should also visit the 'sjøfartsmuseum' at the same place, showing the daily life of thousands of Norwegian seamen and oil workers, quite fascinating
This was so fun as are all your videos. Thank you so much for these!!! I really feel inspired by your enthusiasm and work! I could just give you a big hug!
Thank you for educating me more about this melancholy brilliant artist so much sadness ! I’ll be visiting Norway soon but will not go and visit his gallery because it will ruin my holiday 🤦♂️
I really did enjoy this biography of Munch. Someone on Twitter mentioned it was his birthday and having heard of Munch's art and his well known, The Scream, I searched to find more out about him. Learned so much about his sad life but also laughed at the man being pursued by Tula for all those years and even changing his address to hide from her. How he described her kiss as like kissing a corpse really made me laugh but I have to wonder if he wasn't made as a child to kiss his dead mother's lips and thus actually knew what that sensation was like. Am now subscribed to your TH-cam videos as have taken many art classes and enjoy learning about different artists. Do you know of Guy Rose, a California artist who did travel to France during his career with the influence of the French Impressionists. You may wish to do a video about him in the future. I've seen some of Rose's original paintings in the Oakland Gallery, near San Francisco and each one was valued at over $4 million dollars. Look forward to finding out about other artists with your videos. Thank you for this one. Sent from Vancouver, Canada. BTW: Happy Holidays to you (the narrator) and your assistants and crew.
Thank you for your kind comments. I am afraid I have not heard of Guy Rose, I'll look him up. By the way I do not have any assistants or crew, I'm a one man band. I write the scripts, do the filming and the editing too, which is why I don't produce videos every week as some do. Cheers from Somerset, England.
your videos are informative and pertinent. i can't help but notice that so many artists have big problems w/ $$ and females. it is good to bear in mind that to avoid trauma in one's life (which isn't really poss), one must comprehend that art comes first and involvement w/ others can and does sidetrack anyone. the artists get entangled w/ attachments outside their best interests and come into trouble. i have a calendar for 2020, and on each weekly page is printed a meaningful line from the wise among us - this week's entry states: 'goodness is the only investment that never fails'. ; ) thanks for these fine presentations!
The trouble is life would be so boring without 'attachments' as you call them. Yes, they can cause problems, but they also inspire some of the greatest art ever produced. As art reflects life, you have to experience what life has to offer, its ups and downs, its sadness, traumas and its pleasures. We are humans not automatons. Glad you are enjoying the my videos.
@@ArtHistorySchool yes, very true. yet the young and/or sensitive person may not be aware of the 'facts of life' in this particular regard. people form great ideas about kiddos being a certain way and love mightily only to see in time that change happens both within us as well as within others. and often we think we know a person exceedingly well - then understand in the by and by that we may have been mistaken (at least to a degree or 2)! anyhow i went on Brainy Quotes today and found a couple : 'i want peace, grace and beauty. how do you do that? you work for it.' 'i hope for peace and sanity - its the same thing.' - Studs Terkel
He was so afraid of death and yet he died in his sleep. He was terrified of falling mentally ill, yet he was consumed with crippling anxiety and sadness. What a gift to see the world through his eyes, yet it's hard to no feel empathy for the human being suffering behind the canvas.
Interesting summary
And this is how I passed my Art History exam. Thank you so "munch"!
You are very welcome

There are somethings he cannot discuss or does not know. Some hidden symbols in the work and a couple of other things about
his life.
I Made One animation about The scream on my channel!

Wow, thanks! Cheers from England
Check out the National Gallery channel. The lectures are SPECTACULAR!!!.
В настройках искал, но перевод на русский отсутствует.

He certainly did produce some wonderful works, glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers

Thank you Paul Priestley. I like to know these artists without spending days reading a book. This suits me perfectly. Great images.

Wow, thank you!
I was 4 when he passed. I will be 80 Ju l y 2020.
I am a loner. Since my Only son died I havnt been able to paint.
I don't feel so odd now. Thanks.
Maybe, after seeing how he coped you may be able to pick up a paint brush again. I'm sure your son would think that was brilliant.

Many thanks
I really learnt a lot about Munch from this video, I recently read a book by Karl One Knausgaard about Munch (and the author ) but this concise video was an excellent history and the paintings appearance and illustrations add so much, many thanks
Really pleased you enjoyed my video. Cheers Paul
I like his early work as shown in your video. Hadn't seen those before. Thanks for uploading.
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers
Wow fabulous presentation!
Thank you! Cheers!
Munch...die Allerbesten Mimik...Gesichter...Emotionale Darbietung des Ausdruckes
Munch war in der Tat ein großartiger Maler.
Love your Chanel , thanks !cheers ✨🎼🎸🎨
Many thanks.
Your series is incredible! Thank you for your hard work!
Wow, thank you! Cheers
I love his Scream. No wonder he painted the Scream 😱. My Twin Georg had a troubled childhood. Then his relationship with women and me. Now he’s transforming himself from his heart ache and trauma. He even had clinical depression. I love him
The Scream sums up the feelings of many people
I did my own re-enactment.
Thank you so much for all your videos! It's such a pleasure to meet the favorite artists one after another, great choice indeed.
Many thanks
This is wonderful. When I lived in New York I was privileged to see some of the greatest paintings of the 19th and 20th centuries, and some of them were Munch's. The size and blazing colors belie the themes of some paintings. A very interesting artist. Thank you.
You are very welcome. Thanks
Thank you! I had not ever seen a number of these paintings.
You are welcome
I had no idea that Munch was so productive. Thank you for this wonderful video.
Glad it was helpful! Cheers
Superb Dokumentory, bringing his works and life togeather. Highly inspirational and educational !
Glad you enjoyed it!
The take-away...
The man who painted 'the scream' died peacefully in his sleep.
Lucky fella
Amazing point about anxiety!
Certainly is fortunate to have passed that way.
Wow, that was such an awesome video! I'm really glad to have discovered this channel.
Welcome aboard! Cheers
Amazing all the documentaries, thank you and more more
More to come! Cheers
Great, comprehensive presentation of one of my favorites artists.
Really pleased you enjoyed the video. Cheers Paul
ALWAYS AN ATTRACTIVE MAN EVEN IN OLD AGE, I LUV HIS WORK AND COLOURS!
He was a great artist.
Thank you! It‘s a pleasure listening to you
Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers
I want to tell you I really enjoy these, As a life long artist and art history buff. I like the fresh way that you tell us about the artist's life. And I love your accent I think it brings something to the presentation, I have worked for several Museums around the world and I have always shunned the consenting attitude of making people feel stupid or ignorant for not knowing or pronouncing names or places differently based on their culture thank you
Thank you. I'm pleased you enjoy my presentation and my Yorkshire accent. Cheers Paul
I really enjoy your lectures on so many famous artists. You make it very interesting and informative.
Thanks
Glad you like them! Cheers
Those early paintings are astounding.
They certainly are
I enjoyed your insights into Edvard Munch very much. He is one of my favourite artists and I respect him as a pioneer of Expressionism. I just wanted to mention his name is pronounced 'Moonc' the 'h' is silent.
Cheers
this was beautiful thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers
Thank you for this great documentory!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great historical report... incredible life he had and was able to do his catharsis through his Art! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it Cheers
Thank you for the excellent videos.
Cheers
We really appreciate your effort and style. I'm inspired.
Many many thanks
So much sadness in his life - such beautiful paintings. Did not know that he was so prolific!
He was a great painter.
Love all of your videos. Learned so much about the biography of these famous artists! Keep up the good work!!
I will, I have another video for release in a couple of weeks.
Artist in School Fantastic! Looking forward to it!! :)
Love learning about lives of artists, so really enjoying your videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Well done. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Paul . Love these documentaries . Really put the work into context
Really pleased you are enjoying the videos. Cheers Paul
Marvellous video. Even when I have seen more of the artist's work and read about about their work and life, as with Munch, I see and learn so much more.
Thank you really pleased you enjoyed the video.
Great information. Extremely insightful and rewarding
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers
Another great video.
I saw that scream 😱 picture many times but didn’t know the story behind it.
Love your videos.I feel i am in art history class ,learning a lot without any stress.
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much.
You are very welcome. Cheers
A lot of suffer and pain are in his art he was a great artist
He was indeed.
Very good presentation. Thank you.
You are welcome!
It's interesting that with many of the more famous artists that they start with mainstream, safe and comfortable imagery, and over time, grow and experiment with their images descending into abstract chaos and rawness. They all seem to have shattered lives one way or another, and experience life struggles many wouldn't have been able to hide from, let alone embrace and derive power and direction from.
I think many artists start by working in the mainstream as you say, but they soon find that great art explores the human condition in all its variations. Creativity is very demanding and some can't cope, but in many ways the great art of the world explores the depths of the human mind. This exploration probably keeps them sane.
Love programs like this , thank You Sir
You are welcome, really pleased you enjoyed the video. Cheers
Thank you so much for this amazing video! I have a 4 years old who loves art and she already watched many of your videos!
Really pleased you and your 4 year old enjoy my videos. Cheers
Very interesting. Was recently in Oslo, and visited the new Munch Museum in the downtown of the city. Saw many of the works in this video. Such a sad life, it is reflected in his work. I hadn’t been familiar with his work, except for “The Scream” before going to the museum. The video was most informative.
I haven't been there, maybe one day. Glad you liked the video. Cheers
My second vid in the row. Cezanne and then Munch. All their work can be seen at the Courtauld Galery and Tate Modern. Again this video is very informative. Thank you so much for such an excellent work.
Thank you, I'm glad you find my videos informative. Cheers
Beautifully chronicled!
Thank you
Thank you so much Excellent documentary!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I enjoyed watching and benefited too
I wish you all success
Wonderful presentation about a wonderful artist. Contrats!
Many thanks. Cheers
I am loving these . Wonderful.
Thank you! Cheers!
@@ArtHistorySchool can I contact you directly ? Or is that just silly ?
Nice work as usual and thank you again because apart Claude Monet or Van Gogh or I know their lives, Edward Munch, apart for his paintings, I never learned too much about his life, thank you again Artist In School, you are the best.
Thanks very much, really pleased you enjoyed the video. Cheers Paul
@@ArtHistorySchool Oh nothing, you know, I love painting, painters even their story, that's why I love your videos.
Thank you
@@ArtHistorySchool You are Welcome 😉😉
Was in Oslo, first thing visited Much museum. Olso wanted to visit Fram`s museum, but it was closed when we arrived there.
That's great.
@@ArtHistorySchool My favorite works Puberty and Vampire...And those flowing strokes,,,,
If you visit Fram museum you should also visit the 'sjøfartsmuseum' at the same place, showing the daily life of thousands of Norwegian seamen and oil workers, quite fascinating
I have just discovered this channel and it's absolutely excellent ! Thank you so much for the great content !!
You're very welcome! Please spread the word! Cheers
Well worth watching and a very good brief account of Munch's life and the different styles/phases of his works & paintings.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers Paul
This was so fun as are all your videos. Thank you so much for these!!! I really feel inspired by your enthusiasm and work! I could just give you a big hug!
Thank you so much. Cosmic hugs to you too. Cheers
Thank you for educating me more about this melancholy brilliant artist so much sadness ! I’ll be visiting Norway soon but will not go and visit his gallery because it will ruin my holiday 🤦♂️
You should visit his museum, it would be well worth the visit.
Absolutely wonderful.
Many thanks!
Thank you. It’s so interesting when presented by you.😍😍😍🙏🏼
That's good to know. Really pleased you liked the video. Cheers Paul
I did really enjoy this video on one of my favorite artist. Thank you for your wel presentented bio.
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers
I really did enjoy this biography of Munch. Someone on Twitter mentioned it was his birthday and having heard of Munch's art and his well known, The Scream, I searched to find more out about him. Learned so much about his sad life but also laughed at the man being pursued by Tula for all those years and even changing his address to hide from her. How he described her kiss as like kissing a corpse really made me laugh but I have to wonder if he wasn't made as a child to kiss his dead mother's lips and thus actually knew what that sensation was like. Am now subscribed to your TH-cam videos as have taken many art classes and enjoy learning about different artists. Do you know of Guy Rose, a California artist who did travel to France during his career with the influence of the French Impressionists. You may wish to do a video about him in the future. I've seen some of Rose's original paintings in the Oakland Gallery, near San Francisco and each one was valued at over $4 million dollars. Look forward to finding out about other artists with your videos. Thank you for this one. Sent from Vancouver, Canada. BTW: Happy Holidays to you (the narrator) and your assistants and crew.
Thank you for your kind comments. I am afraid I have not heard of Guy Rose, I'll look him up. By the way I do not have any assistants or crew, I'm a one man band. I write the scripts, do the filming and the editing too, which is why I don't produce videos every week as some do. Cheers from Somerset, England.
❤ this video great job as always
Thank you so much 😀
your videos are informative and pertinent. i can't help but notice that so many artists have big problems w/ $$ and females. it is good to bear in mind that to avoid trauma in one's life (which isn't really poss), one must comprehend that art comes first and involvement w/ others can and does sidetrack anyone. the artists get entangled w/ attachments outside their best interests and come into trouble. i have a calendar for 2020, and on each weekly page is printed a meaningful line from the wise among us - this week's entry states: 'goodness is the only investment that never fails'. ; ) thanks for these fine presentations!
The trouble is life would be so boring without 'attachments' as you call them. Yes, they can cause problems, but they also inspire some of the greatest art ever produced. As art reflects life, you have to experience what life has to offer, its ups and downs, its sadness, traumas and its pleasures. We are humans not automatons. Glad you are enjoying the my videos.
@@ArtHistorySchool yes, very true. yet the young and/or sensitive person may not be aware of the 'facts of life' in this particular regard. people form great ideas about kiddos being a certain way and love mightily only to see in time that change happens both within us as well as within others. and often we think we know a person exceedingly well - then understand in the by and by that we may have been mistaken (at least to a degree or 2)! anyhow i went on Brainy Quotes today and found a couple : 'i want peace, grace and beauty. how do you do that? you work for it.' 'i hope for peace and sanity - its the same thing.' - Studs Terkel
