素描和版画,贯穿蒙克的艺术人生

 涤砚堂 2019-10-23

蒙克的素描是他艺术的基础。他几乎在任何地方都不停地画画:在旅行的时候,在咖啡馆里,在卡巴莱酒店里,在户外,在家里,显然包括在他的画室里。他画了家庭成员和朋友,孩子和工人,社会精英和波西米亚人的成员,美人鱼和圣母。

爱德华·蒙克的绘画作品首次在《葡萄干》数字目录中出版。它们中的绝大多数是完全不为人知的,只有一小部分在展览会上展出过。这些绘画作品提供了一个机会,让人们对蒙克的艺术有更深入的了解,并对他的艺术过程有更深入的了解。蒙克博物馆的工作正在进行中,并将增加和改变的图纸。该目录共包含7600多张图纸。

蒙克博物馆收藏的绘画作品,以及其他600多件收藏品,对我们了解这位艺术家做出了重要贡献。“你看,我从不使用废纸篓'我用我的行李箱。'他写给他的朋友Gierløff,他保留了一切,从最简单的涂鸦到最出色的绘画。他把一切都留给后代是别有用心的。

在他的一生中,爱德华·蒙克非常尊敬剧作家易卜生。在他童年的画作中,我们发现了伪装者的插图,1884年,他的妹妹英格在日记中写道,她从图书馆借了皇帝和伽利略给卧病在床的哥哥。1895年,易卜生公开参观了蒙克在克里斯蒂亚尼亚的有争议的展览,这给蒙克留下了深刻的印象。易卜生对他说:“你的经历和我的一样,敌人越多,朋友就越多。”1899年,易卜生出版了他的最后一部戏剧《当我们死后觉醒》(When We Dead)。

蒙克与剧院的关系很亲密。在巴黎,他为两出易卜生的戏剧在卢格涅坡剧院(Lugne Poes Theatre de L ' euvre)制作了节目海报。导演马克斯·莱因哈特也请求蒙克在次年协助他制作《黑达·加布勒》。

许多印刷品、一些绘画作品和350多幅素描被注册为与易卜生有关。易卜生的文本和蒙克的主题之间的关系是复杂的,从纯粹的插图到更多有争议的灵感。在很多情况下,这些角色都是可以认出来的,要么来自现实生活,要么来自蒙克自己创造的主题世界。当伊卜生笔下的人物充满了蒙克自己的特色时,个人与文学之间的界限就变得模糊了。例如,他在《鬼魂》中强烈地认同奥斯瓦尔德,他甚至将自己的生命历程描述为一种奥斯瓦尔德情绪的主宰。戏剧《皮尔·金特》(Peer Gynt)是令人愉悦的小品的来源(mmt . t .00203-08),而与伪装者有关的主题被第一次世界大战的暴行渲染得色彩斑斓。
