A great piece of art: "The shout"



Hi everyone!

This time I'm going to talk a little bit about art. I'm not really an expert in this area, but I can't say that I don't like art, because I consider my self a musician, and at least, I love music as a way of making art. But now, I want to show a particular piece of art that I like very much. I'm talking about "The shout", a painting of Edvard Munch that I'm pretty sure you all should know. The most amazing part of this painting, at least for me, is the expression of the shouting man, it's incredible how Munch creates it with just a few lines, it's like so expressive and empty at the same time. I know it sounds weird, but that is what I see in that face. Also the colors of the sky call my attention, the whole enviroment makes you want to scream! And those siluets behind the man... They look very scary.
Well I hope you consider this painting a great piece of art as I do.

Post your comment! Bye!!

Hi Francisco,
This is definitely a very famous painting, and for good reason, it seems to me. It is true, the colors of the sky and the background really accentuate the emotion expressed by the man, who is screaming. Thanks for your post!
