From fin-de-siecle anxiety to public energy
Make the sun an image of knowledge and life
Munch developed The Sun for the setting of the Aula at the University of Oslo, a project linked to the centenary of 1911. The disk rises over the sea and sends geometric beams through a rocky landscape. Around this monumental motif, sunsets, baths of light and groups facing the star show a more open phase of his work, where color becomes regeneration. The selection "The sun at Edvard Munch" notably compares canal to the setting sun - Edvard Munch and Women turning towards the sun - Edvard Munch. His reading favors the material.
Light does not fall gently on things: it starts from the horizon and crosses all of space like an active force.
Course & style
From the coastal landscape to the great university wall
Studies, versions and compositions of figures allow Munch to adapt the solar motif to sometimes monumental formats.
Sustainable return to Norway
After several eventful years, Munch reoriented his painting towards themes of health, work and nature. This milestone illuminates the "The Sun at Edvard Munch" collection by favoring the material.
