This from today’s Spec:

“Edvard Munch: The Modern Life of the Soul” is a thoroughly engaging and entertaining retrospective that follows the recent trend of mounting “audience-proof” exhibitions. Museums try and amass as many great and popular works of art as they can in order to satiate a public that seeks the comfort of the familiar. There’s little revelatory about the show except perhaps to reacquaint New Yorkers with a cross section of Munch’s voluminous body of work. That said, Edvard Munch is beyond a doubt one of the most exciting offerings of the spring.
