SFMOMA’s Munch Exhibition Gone, But Catalogue Makes Swell Gift

So there was no “Scream” here, but plenty of other moving and iconic pieces of art done by the troubled Norwegian painter…including some nocturnes that should appeal to anyone who has ridden the ferry during the wee hours.

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) staged the global debut of the exhibition Edvard Munch: Between the Clock and the Bed.

The show has closed, but the catalogue remains, and can be purchased at the museum gift shop.
