The celebrated Norwegian painter and printmaker Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is one of the most influential figures in modern art. With his interest in self-analysis, Munch ranks among the great self-portrait painters of Western art - from Rembrandt through Goya to Van Gogh. His intense, evocative treatment of psychological and emotional themes offers a fascinating insight into the psyche of an artist. Few artists have observed and painted themselves throughout their lives as frequently as Munch, and few have revealed their weaknesses and anxieties as frankly. This handsome volume, the catalogue of an exhibition at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, the Munch-museet, Oslo, and the Royal Academy of Arts, London, examines for the first time Munch's extensive œuvre of painted and graphic self-portraits, together with his rarely seen drawings and photographic self-portraits. The curator and scholar Iris Müller-Westermann sets these works of startling originality in context in her incisive account of the artists life and career. Munch by Himself sheds light on the wide range of Munch's self-portraits, enabling us to trace the visual self-reflections of the artist who created The Scream (1893), the iconic painting that expresses modern alienation and isolation.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [196]-199) and index. Contents; Includes a chronology by Ylva Hillström. Summary; There is little doubt that the celebrated Norwegian painter and printmaker Edvard Munch (1863-1944) had the greatest impact on expressionism of any Scandinavian artist. His intense, evocative treatment of psychological and emotional themes exerted a major influence on the art of the twentieth century. Often biographical, his output offers a fascinating insight into the psyche of an artist. No artist observed and painted himself throughout his life as frequently as Munch, and few have revealed their weaknesses and anxieties as frankly. This handsome volume, the catalogue of an exhibition at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, the Munch Museet, Oslo, and the Royal Academy of Arts, London, contains beautiful reproductions of 150 paintings, drawings and rarely seen photographic self-portraits of startling originality. The curator and scholar Iris Muller-Westermann sets them in context in her incisive account of the artist's life and career, and Merete Mazzarella examines how many of Munch's preoccupations remain relevant today. Edvard Munch: By Himself sheds light for the first time on the uniquely wide range of Munch's self-portraits, enabling us to trace the visual self-reflections of one of the most influential figures in modern art.
