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!
