Munch And Van Gogh: Personal Letters
Yesterday (the 25th of September) was the opening day of an interesting exhibition called Munch: Van Gogh, in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. The exhibition focuses on the parallels between the two artists, but also shows the differences that distinguish their art. If you happen to be an art lover and your heart skipped a beat when you heard about this innovative exhibition, there is just one thing to do to make this experience unique, and that is to take an interdisciplinary approach. We have prepared two book recommendations for you: The Private Journals of Edvard Munch: We Are Flames Which Pour Out of the Earth (selection of texts made by J. Gill Holland) and The Letters of a Post-Impressionist by Van Gogh. By reading these two pieces, you will find out more about the inner worlds of Munch and Van Gogh, which may put a new light on their art works.
