The Munch Museum's 1894 version of 'Puberty' has not been shown to the public for more than ten years due to need of conservation. This experimental painting was done by Edvard Munch on unprimed canvas which made it more and more fragile over the years. The painting has over the past years undergone extensive conservation, and the finalizing of this gave the idea of an exhibition and the first solemn publication with articles on this important work of Munch. 0Exhibition: Munch Museum, Oslo, Norway (2012).

Work Description

Während eines achtmonatigen Aufenthalts in dem Sanatorium von Dr. Daniel Jacobsen in Kopenhagen verwandelt Munch sein Krankenzimmer in ein Atelier und entwickelt einen neuen extrovertierteren und expressiveren Stil. In dieser Zeit entsteht das Meisterwerk Alpha und Omega, eine grafische Mappe bestehend aus 22 lithographischen Blättern und einem gedruckten Prosagedicht. Zusammen ergeben sie eine bildnerische Parabel, die in Episoden die Geschichte von Alpha und Omega, den ersten Menschen auf einer Insel, erzählt. Munchs heftige Besessenheit vom Kampf der Geschlechter steigert sich in dieser Inselphantasie ins Groteske und kann als ironische Abrechnung mit der libertären Sexualmoral der Christiania-Bohème gelten. Persönliche Widersacher werden als Mischwesen karikiert und am Ende tötet Alpha Omega und wird selbst von Menschen in Tiergestalt gefressen. 0Exhibition: Museum Kunst der Westküste, Alkersum, Germany (9.6.2013-12.1.2014).
