Organized by Dumas, the project stems from her longstanding, personal connection to the works of Munch. The book focuses particularly on Munch's 1908-9 series of lithographs titled \u003ci\u003eAlpha and Omega\u003c\/i\u003e and on a new series of works by Dumas titled \u003ci\u003eVenus \u0026amp; Adonis\u003c\/i\u003e. Both series deal with themes of innocence, sexuality, loneliness, anxiety, and death, and each is structured around a love story. Through this book, Dumas shows us how she perceives Munch not simply as an emotional expressionist, but rather as an intelligent artist thoughtfully reflecting on human conditions in general. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for Mercatorfonds and the Munch Museum \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMunch Museum, Oslo\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 09\/29\/18-01\/13\/19\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mercatorfonds","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47969066385559,"sku":"9780300243741","price":4312.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780300243741.webp?v=1782920335","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/omegas-eyes-marlene-dumas-on-edvard-munch-9780300243741","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
