Only an instant

Abstract

"Edvard Munch wrote his whole life, but most of his texts remained in the drawer. In Only an Instant significant voices from a range of different fields--from visual art to music, critique and astrophysics--enter into dialogue with one of these unpublished texts. Through the contributors' diverse reactions to Munch's text, the book explores the potential of the sketch-like and unfinished. With contributions by Sumaya Jirde Ali, Arif, Hilde Bøe, Øystein Elgarøy, Marit Grøtta, Nils-Øivind Haagensen, Jeanine El Khawand, Mette Henriette, Felipe 'Fela' Orellana, Manuel Pelmuș, Morten A. Strøksnes, Constance Tenvik, Ahmed Umar, and Gunnhild Øyehaug"--Provided by publisher.
