Edvard Munch, (1863–1944), painted more than just “The Scream”. The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art will have 45 of his other pieces on display, including Between the Clock and the Bed, a self portrait. He “was among the most celebrated and controversial artists of his generation. But, as he confessed in 1939, his true breakthrough came very late in life… these profoundly human and technically daring artworks reveal Munch as a tireless innovator and an artist as revolutionary in his maturity as he was in his breakthrough years.”
