MUNCH MASTERPIECES ARRIVE IN HOMES AROUND THE WORLD

Samsung Electronics has announced a new partnership with MUNCH that will bring iconic works by Edvard Munch to millions of homes worldwide through the Samsung Art Store platform.

The new digital collection features 37 masterpieces, including the world-famous artworks “The Scream,” “The Dance of Life,” and “Melancholy,” along with several rarely exhibited pieces from the museum’s archives. Through this collaboration, users around the globe will gain exclusive access to some of the most significant works of European artistic heritage directly on Samsung Art TV devices

“Samsung develops products that inspire people and help them express personal style through design and culture,” said Tommy Nilsson, Director of TV & Audio at Samsung Nordics. “With Samsung Art Store, world-class art becomes accessible to millions of people, and through this partnership with the MUNCH museum we are bringing an important part of European artistic heritage into users’ homes.”

In addition to Munch’s most celebrated paintings, the collection also offers a more intimate look into the artist’s creative legacy through rarely seen works such as “Garden with Trees” and “Two Human Beings at the Table.” Many of these artworks are preserved under carefully controlled conditions due to their sensitivity and are not normally available for public display, even inside the museum in Oslo.

Tone Hansen, Director of the MUNCH museum, described the collaboration as an important opportunity to present Munch’s art beyond the walls of the museum.

“Thanks to Samsung’s global reach and Art TV technology, we can make Edvard Munch’s works more accessible to people worldwide, and we are honored to collaborate with Samsung on this important initiative,” Hansen said.

The collection will be available exclusively on Samsung Art TV devices through Samsung Art Store, allowing users to explore hidden artistic treasures from the comfort of their own homes.

Samsung continues to redefine the role of television in modern living spaces by combining advanced display technology with sophisticated interior design. The expansion of Samsung Art Store across the company’s Art TV lineup — including The Frame, OLED, Neo QLED and Micro RGB models — further connects everyday environments with curated collections from leading museums, galleries, and artists.

Samsung Art Store currently offers access to more than 5,000 artworks created by over 800 artists in collaboration with prestigious institutions such as The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art and Musée d’Orsay.

Selected artworks from the MUNCH museum became globally available through Samsung Art Store on June 1, 2026.

Located in Oslo’s vibrant Bjørvika district, the MUNCH museum houses the world’s largest collection of works by Edvard Munch, including masterpieces such as “The Scream,” “The Sun,” “Vampire,” and “Girls on the Bridge.” The museum serves as a major cultural hub, organizing exhibitions, concerts, lectures, and events that attract millions of visitors and art lovers every year.

Widely regarded as one of the most influential artists of modernism, Edvard Munch (1863–1944) left a profound impact on international art through his groundbreaking experimentation in painting, printmaking, drawing, sculpture, photography, and film.
