Emin/Munch: Between the Clock and the Bed

This winter sees the opening of The Loneliness of the Soul, a new exhibition at London's Royal Academy, showcasing the work of Tracey Emin, alongside paintings by Edvard Munch. Munch's work has long inspired Emin, from her early video piece Homage to Edvard Munch and All My Dead Children to her monumental new nine-metre high bronze sculpture, The Mother, set to be installed outside Oslo's new Munch Museum next spring. This documentary charts the affinities between Munch's art and Emin's, exploring the ways that this godfather of expressionism resonates with one of Britain's pre-eminent artists

Emin/Munch: Between the Clock and the Bed airs on BBC Four HD at 1:50 AM, Wednesday 18 March. (Subtitles.)
