This important collection is presented in a style which is initially disconcerting, yet extremely thought-provoking. For example, one room juxtaposes The Scream and The Dance of Life against works by Gauguin, Courbet and Monet; elsewhere a landscape by Johan Christian Dahl sits alongside Cézanne’s view of the Jas de Bouffan. Other rooms presnt the evolution of Norwegian painting in a more conventional format.
