Munch wrote, I don't paint what I see, but what I've seen.
00:22
So every image we observe is actually the result of a memory, of something he lived,
00:28
but filtered by his emotions.
00:30
From when he was very young until his last years, here there is a Munch all around.
00:52
These 100 exceptional works from the Munch Museum trace the life and experimentation of this artist,
01:01
who started to produce works when he was a late teenager and never stopped, literally, until the day he died.
01:08
And he was experimental in all aspects of painting and printmaking.
01:13
So we're able to watch as he develops.
01:16
So it's a bit of a chronology.
01:18
The second thing is that he was impassioned about trying to explain how the eye works
01:24
and how memory always affects what we see.
01:27
Memory, emotions, the sounds from the exterior, shape vision.
01:32
And in doing that, he was at one with the development of perceptual psychology.
01:38
So we also get to see how this artist experimented with our literal ways of seeing the world.
01:45
And in doing that, he helped to show us a world that we may already see and experience,
01:50
but we didn't really have words for before he showed us.
