El primer de mil besos?

February 16, 2006 by Dr. S


Edvard Munch's "The Kiss" (1892), part of the new Munch show at MOMA, from this evening's The New York Times on the Web. It's the color that moves me--moves me enough that I'm not even more than a twinge bothered, for now, that she's lost her head altogether to his kiss, that he's subsuming her completely. Instead, it's the blue I'm seeing, so much and so many.
