Abstrakt
This is a study of how Edvard Munch learned to express himself and how this led him to become one of the pioneers of the art movement known as Expressionism. I will further explore how filmmakers learned from his techniques and utilized it in their own interpretations. I will begin by exploring Munchs childhood, career and his foray into symbolism, then dive into several films and filmmakers starting with 1920s German expressionist cinema with Robert Weines The Cabinet of Dr Caligari and and F.W. Murnaus Nosferatu, moving to its influence on Hollywood filmmakers with films like Orson Welles Citizen Kane and A Touch of Evil. I will explore how Polish filmmaker Andzrej Wajda used symbolism with his famous war trilogy, A Generation, Kanal and Ashes and Diamond, how Joel Coen paid homage to German expressionism with The Tragedy of Macbeth and how Sam Levinsons Euphoria explores human emotions externally with the genre of neon-noir. The last film I will present in this study is one of my own, my color etude exercise called Red, which I based on Edvard Munchs work and one in which I tried to channel his trauma into one of the characters psychological states.
