This volume, published in association with the University of Oslo Conservation Studies, explores changes in the appearance of Edvard Munch’s paintings through traditional and advanced scientific analysis. Covering works in major Norwegian collections and public commissions, the papers examine Munch’s materials, experimental techniques, and the aging phenomena affecting his art. The volume also reviews past and present conservation efforts and compares Munch’s practices with those of his contemporaries.
The papers in this book (published in association with University of Oslo Conservation Studies (IAKH)) address the changes in appearance in Munch’s 19th- and 20th-century paintings. These have been documented by traditional as well as more recent scientific methods of examination. Topics include: Munch’s works in major Norwegian collections; the artist’s’ commission for the University of Oslo Aula and some aging phenomena evident in these artworks; notes of the methods and materials of the artist’s experimental drafts and the present condition of these drafts; past and present conservation campaigns for Munch’s public paintings in various countries; and the painting materials and degradation in works by Munch and his contemporaries.
