‘The Scream’ and Beyond: Exploring the World of Munch

🎨 [Oslo Munch Museum Review] – A Gallery of Emotions Beyond Silence Edvard Munch, a painter whose legacy goes far beyond his iconic work, 'The Scream.' The **Munch Museum** in Oslo is a gallery that vividly showcases his emotions—anxiety, love, loss, and loneliness. **Admission is 160 NOK (approximately €15)**, with discounts available for students and seniors. Operating hours are from 10 AM to 9 PM, making it convenient for a leisurely visit. Despite its modern exterior, the interior exudes a calm and somber atmosphere. Munch’s works seem to freeze time within these walls. From the original 'The Scream' to thousands of paintings, prints, drawings, and even letters, the museum offers a comprehensive look into his world. Viewing his art is not just about seeing—it’s about feeling. His works invite you to delve deep into your emotions, often leaving you standing in front of a piece for minutes, lost in thought. What stood out most were his handwritten letters and short notes. Munch was not only a painter but also a philosopher, a man who meticulously documented his inner world through both art and words. Unlike the sunny vibrance of destinations like Mallorca, this museum offers a quiet, profound resonance—a chance to encounter the entirety of one man’s life. ⸻ 📍Visitor Information • Operating Hours: Daily 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM • Admission: Adults 160 NOK / Students 100 NOK / Free for under 18 • Lockers available
