Now, over a century later, the National Nordic Museum has partnered with four Seattle high schools in this virtual exhibition that asks students to respond to Munch's work with their own self-portraits. Advanced Placement 2-D Art and Design (Photography) Students from four Seattle schools took a virtual tour of The Experimental Self: Edvard Munch's Photography, which opened at the Museum in October 2020, with curator Pat Berman. Then, as part of their advanced placement studies, they created portraits that responded to Munch's process and self exploration.
