Edvard Munch

Along with the Clark’s major summer exhibition, Edvard Munch: Trembling Earth, Manton Curator of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs Anne Leonard presents the Clark’s full set of works on paper by this revered Norwegian artist. In his prints, Munch challenged conventional ideas about the portrayal of the human figure, the role of color, and the primacy of materials in realizing an artistic vision.

Visit the Manton Study Center for Works on Paper, which houses the Clark’s collection of more than 6,500 prints, drawings, and photographs. Each week, discover a unique selection of rarely exhibited works on paper with a member of the curatorial department. Offered Wednesdays from 1 to 1:30 p.m. in August.

The talk is ree and open to the public; capacity is limited to twenty visitors on a first-come, first-served basis. The Manton Study Center for Works on Paper is located next to the exhibition Printed Renaissance in the Manton Research Center.

By the Way Berkshires is a digital magazine exploring creative life and community — art and performance, food and the outdoors — and I’m writing it for you, with local voices, because I’ve gotten to know this rich part of the world as a writer and journalist, and I want to share it with you.

If you’d like to see the website grow, you can join me for a few dollars a month, enough for a cup of coffee and a cider doughnut. Members get access to extra stories and multimedia, itineraries a bookmark tool. Let me know what you're looking for, and we’ll explore together.
