Starving Art Ep. 4: Edvard Munch and the Spanish Flu

A life shaped by illness and death, enduring by the relentless pursuit of expression. In the face of deadly disease, Edvard Munch creates one of the only records we have, artistic or otherwise, of a personal experience with the deadly Spanish Flu. Sometimes the only thing to do in the face of tragedy and hardship is to make art about it!     Links to the artwork featured on this show:   Spring By the Death Bed Self Portrait with the Spanish Flu Self Portrait After the Spanish Flu     Please subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts, rate and share!      My hope, as always, is for your inspiration and tenacity!     Follow the show @starvingartpod on Instagram!
