"Experience Edvard Munch as seen through the eyes of Karl Ove Knausgård. Knausgård is curating this summer's exhibition, which will feature many paintings, graphic prints and sculptures that have never been exhibited previously. The exhibition takes the form of a journey from light and harmony through darkness and chaos - returning finally to a controllable reality. Karl Ove Knausgård's aim with the exhibition is to emphasise key sides of Munch's artistry without being bound by biography or chronology: 'I want to exhibit unknown pictures on the premise that I believe it is possible for us to experience Munch as if viewing him for the first time as that he was: a painter who never found inner calm, and who never became stale.'" -- From the museum website.
