A spectacular building in itself but also very well set out, spent hours here: also nice cafe. If we'd had more time we would have returned.

A must visit while in Oslo, this new museum focuses on the prolific career of the tortured artist Edvard Munch. There are 13 floors in this new architectural addition to the city’s skyline with most displaying Munch’s work from wood cut print and sketches to massive pairings the size of busses and including perhaps his most famous work, Skirk or as we know it, “the Scream”.

The artwork is thoughtfully grouped by theme with sections dedicated to death, sadness, and natural scenes to name a few. The museum also does a good job educating the viewer as to Munch’s life and career.

How it works/things to know:
-buy tickets online for specific day/time in advance or at the box office.
-the scream is in the center of floor 4
-there are 3 versions of the scream-the painting, a pastel on cardboard and a drawing
-only one version is on display at a time in order to protect them (quite fragile) and a different one is “revealed” in the Scream exhibition every half hour.
-The drawing is the one most exhibited, however in a 2- hour period we saw drawing 2:25pm, pastel on cardboard at 2:30pm and finally after 3:30 the painting version

There’s also a bar on the top floor as well as a nice museum shop on the ground floor which is accessible without a museum ticket in case you need a scream t-shirt.

Nicely organized building, surrounded by very nice modern architecture buildings. The exhibition itself was interesting and provided a nice overview of Munch's life and art.

I, sadly, had no idea how prolific and influential Edvard Munch was. He left all of his work and tools to the city of Oslo, and Oslo had done a spectacular job of displaying this immense collection -- both exhausting and fascinating. Even if you have only 2 hours, go to this museum.

It's a very interesting piece of architecture. But mostly from the outside, from the inside, I felt like we did more running on the stairs, than looking at the art (but we were running out of time as well, so that probably affected my experience).
Museum mostly focuses on modern art + Munch. If someone is into that, I think it's still a good museum, with many interesting pieces. At that time, on the top floor was a temporary exhibition, which was actually terrifying. I'm a grown woman enjoying horror movies, but that was... something else. So if you are planning to go with kids - I suggest checking beforehand what kind of temporary exhibition is on.
