Samsung and MUNCH Museum Bring Rarely Seen Masterpieces to Samsung Art Store
Korea on June 1, 2026
New collaboration brings Edvard Munch masterpieces — including “The Scream” and “The Sun” — into homes around the world
Samsung Electronics today announced a new collaboration with MUNCH to add iconic artworks by Edvard Munch to Samsung Art Store. The digital collection makes 37 masterpieces such as “The Scream,” “The Dance of Life” and “Melancholy” — as well as several rare works from the museum’s collection — available to millions of users around the world.
“Samsung creates products that inspire people and help them express themselves through design and culture,” said Tommy Nilsson, TV & Audio Director at Samsung Nordics. “With Samsung Art Store, we make world-class art available to millions of people and through this collaboration with MUNCH, we are bringing an important part of European artistic heritage into people’s homes.”
Samsung Art Store Opens Up MUNCH Archives
Alongside Munch’s iconic masterpieces, the collection offers a more intimate view of Edvard Munch’s artistry with rarely seen works such as “Garden with Trees” and “Two People at Table.” These works are part of a collection of treasures preserved in the museum’s archives, many of which must be kept in carefully controlled environments to protect them from further deterioration. Their condition makes them too vulnerable for public display, even at the museum in Oslo.
“This collaboration is an exciting opportunity to share Edvard Munch’s art with audiences beyond the museum’s walls in Oslo,” said Tone Hansen, Director of MUNCH. “Through Samsung’s global reach and Art TV technology, we can make Munch’s work more accessible to people around the world and we are incredibly honored to collaborate with Samsung on this meaningful initiative.”
The collection will be exclusively available on Samsung’s Art TV lineup through Samsung Art Store, providing users with a close look at Munch’s private world by allowing them to explore and display the artist’s hidden gems at home.
