Considers an exhibition at Tate Modern, June to October, of the great Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944), exploring his paintings and graphic work, with their relation to examples of his photography. Munch is distinguished by a highly original sensibility, characterised in nerve-edged works that probe the undercurrents of intimacy, sickness, isolation, loss and death; identifying themes that preoccupied the central European movement of Expressionism through the Great War into the 1930s. Munch can now be seen as a primary source of a profound psychodrama, played out through the 20th century and beyond.
