Seoul�s subway riders are in for a scream through this spring and summer, with a display of Edvard Munch paintings.
This year the Norwegian Embassy in Korea is celebrating the 150th anniversary of modernist painter Edvard Munch with a photo exhibition of 20 paintings on display in Samgakji Subway Station through the end of August.
Munch was born in the rural town of Loten in Norway on Dec. 12, 1863. This year marks the 150th anniversary of one of the most influential modernist painters of all time.
In fact, the 150-year jubilee of the renowned Norwegian artist�s birth is being celebrated all over Norway. A number of cultural events with a focus on his work will be arranged in what the embassy is calling �the Munch year.�
In the past three years, commuters passing through Samgakji station have gotten a little taste of Norwegian nature and life through a cooperation agreement between the embassy and Korea.
