Munch Anxiety
Art and themes relating to the human condition?

I am wondering if anyone can recommend artists that represent concerns in their work relating to the human condition and existence? Such as fear and anxiety relating to our own mortality? Like Francis Bacon and Edvard Munch (the scream), or perhaps work relating more toward escapism? Artists who create works that cause sensory reactions, such as fear and suspense relating to our fear of unknowing, and knowing? (eg. David Lynch Films)? just curious :) any form of art, painters, photographers, filmmakers/films etc…. plus add if you have any opinions on these themes?

All outsider artists? Albert Camus novel the outsider Colin Wilsons essays on outsiders.lars von triers ‘idiots’ and Festen The dogme 95 manifesto.

(I do too but I am not famous)

I love films that are about the human condition at a stretch I would say also the video of Gloria going to 3 separate counsellors is an art form -It s actually a training video for counsellors a bit out of date now but one woman goes to three different Counsellors Fritz Perls Albert Ellis and Carl Rogers and all the sessions are taped its real but I think still performance art.

$25.00


Two potent myths have traditionally defined our understanding of the artist Edvard Munch (1862-1944): he was mentally unstable, as his iconic work The Scream (1893) suggests, and he was radically independent, following his own singular vision. Becoming Edvard Munch: Influence, Anxiety, and Myth persuasively challenges these entrenched perceptions. In this book, Jay A. Clarke demonstrates that Mun…
