Munch exhibition in Paris
We can say specifically went to see the exhibition at Centre Georges Pompidou - and extremely disappointed. Munch has always been one of my favorites , but here curators have done everything to show it to a serial maniac. So famous girls on the bridge are presented in six varieties , specially emphasized that the forest was made a vampire 10, and " stooping girl " - 12 options. Texts on the walls , telling us that Munch and only doing what was driving up to order, but the entire collection of works as intended to convince the viewer into the artist's mediocrity . I suspect that this was due to the ambitions of the curators of the exhibition : the idea (and name ), the exhibition - " Munch - the artist of the 20th century ," so instead of exciting work late XIX-early XX-th century, mainly represented by his later work 20 - x - 30's , 90%imported from Oslo museum . That is , the curators , trying to show its originality, almost killed the artist
