A hairless, ghostly figure on a bridge. The sky orange-red above
him. His hands raised to his ears, his mouth wide in a haunting
wail. In painting The Scream, Edvard Munch (1863-1944) created Mona
Lisa for our times. The shriek of his iconic figure reverberates
around the world, its echo resounding in the work of Andy Warhol,
Jasper Johns, Martin Kippenberger, Marlene Dumas, and Tracey Emin.
This introductory book surveys Munch's staggering capacity for
psychodrama in The Scream and beyond. With rich illustration, it
looks at the lurid, dark, and deeply modern visions that made up
the artist's response to relationships and emotions. These
compelling images, regarded by the artist himself as a means of
"free confession," remain as magnetic today as they were on the
brink of modernism. About the series Born back in 1985, the Basic
Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection
ever published. Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art series features: a
detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the
artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a
concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory
captions
