Free exhibition of Edvard Munch's 'soul paintings', including works from 'The Frieze of Life', at the Tate Modern.
Edvard Munch takes over the Tate Modern from 11 November 2027, running through to 16 April 2028. It's a collaboration between the Tate and the MUNCH museum, and it centres on The Frieze of Life, the series Munch himself described as "impressions from the life of the soul".
The exhibition reads those "soul paintings" through the lens of cinema and visual storytelling, with input from contemporary filmmakers and academics. Large-scale paintings and prints sit alongside photographs, experimental film and rare archival material, working out the universal themes of passion, pain and inner turmoil that the artist depicted. It's not just a collection of his most famous works; it's a look at how they connect to each other and to the way we tell stories with images.
