Jorn + Munch is the first publication to examine the enduring
impact Edvard Munch (1863-1944) had on Asger Jorn (1914-1973). In
Munch's later works, Danish artist Jorn discovered an artist with a
direct, spontaneous, and raw form of expression. Already influenced
by surrealism's unprompted painting style, Jorn was naturally drawn
to Munch's similarly unbridled compositions. In particular, Jorn
was interested in Munch's use of intense colors and his gestural
application of paint in the later works. From the middle of the
1940s, and for many years after that, Munch is shown to be a
challenging and important reference point for Jorn's own body of
work. Distributed for Mercatorfonds Exhibition Schedule: Munch

Is it possible to create a community where everyone lives according
to their own rhythm, and yet respects the individual rhythms of
others? This volume contains new essays which investigate and
actualize the concepts that Roland Barthes discussed in his famous
1977 lecture series on "How to Live Together" at the College de
France.The anthology presents original and thought-provoking
approaches to questions of conviviality and "idiorrhytmic life
forms" in literature, arts and other media.The essays are written
by 32 highly competent scholars from seven countries, representing
literary studies, philosophy, social sciences, theology, church
history, psychoanalysis, art history, architecture, media studies,
history of ideas, and biology.
