蒙克：吶喊地獄

The world-renowned artwork ＂The Scream＂ by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch is second to ＂Mona Lisa＂ as one of the most celebrated paintings in the world, and continues to capture the public’s imagination and influence countless pop culture creations such as ＂Scream＂ and ＂The Simpsons＂, even becoming the first WhatsApp emoji inspired by a work of art. However, the story behind the creator of this famous work is less positive. Munch’s talent was not appreciated during his lifetime and he was once reduced to selling his paintings at a reduced price. Throughout his life, Munch struggled to maintain a balance between creativity and love, which caused him endless suffering. Towards the end of his life, he lived alone, with only more than a thousand oil paintings and over 20,000 sketches to keep him company. Even though Munch was seen as one of the pioneers of German Expressionism and among the most important painters in the history of art, his legacy hung in the balance when two of his masterpieces, ＂The Scream＂ and ＂Madonna＂ was stolen in broad daylight and the construction of a new museum dedicated to his work hit various financial and administrative snags. ＂Munch in Hell＂ delves into early drafts of Munch’s autobiography, sketches, private notes and letters to reveal the struggles and hardships this master artist faced throughout his life. Perhaps Norway is too cold and too small to contain an artist of this stature. *All information is for reference only. Details are subject to UA Cinemas' final notice.
