Lunch with Munch at Haugar Vestfold Art Museum

I was invited yesterday to take a walk through town, and to see a special exhibit of Andy Warhol /Edvard Munch paintings at the Vestfold Art Museum. I hate walking, or so I thought. But when you have the company of someone as wonderful as my friend Nora, time just slips away as you meander past all the interesting sights (hmmm seems some of my friends have been sticking up for me here). And even ran across a friend from New York, on the way there (or at least he sure did look familiar).


The Show was amazing for me. Not so much that I am a huge fan of Munch’s style of work, although he is quite brilliant. But for me, a kid from the hood, it was an amazing feeling to see the great works of a master having seen and stood upon, just days ago, the very landscapes in his paintings.

And the themes of separation and melancholy, also registered with me. I wasn’t too impressed with Warhol’s knock-off’s of Munch’s infamous Scream, but it is what it is. Thank you Nora for an absolutely splendid afternoon. I’m very excited about my studio you are preparing for me
here.
