The Cinema as CanvasEDVARD MUNCH (1974)
Thursday, June 11th at 7 PM
Hosted by artist Karl Bourke
Described by Ingmar Bergman as ''a work of genius'', Peter Watkins' multi-faceted masterwork is more than just a biopic of the iconic Norwegian Expressionist painter; it is one of the best films ever made about the artistic process. Following a rough chronology from 1884 to 1894, when Norwegian artist Edvard Munch began expressionism and established himself as northern Europe's most maligned and controversial artist. Using his trademark vérité style, Watkins creates a vivid picture of the emotional, political, and social upheavals that would have such an effect on his art. (Sweden, Norway, 1974, 210 mins, French, English, Norwegian, German, Swedish, Danish | Dir. Peter Watkins)
