An exhibition of artworks by that gloomiest of gloomy souls, Edvard Munch, doesn’t immediately scream ‘summer outing’ (typical titles for his works include ‘Melancholy’ and ‘At the Death Bed’), but this excellent show at the recently refurbished Courtauld Gallery is not to be missed. Start here around midday and immerse yourself in Munch’s world of drooping figures, haunted eyes and greyscale landscapes and… realise it’s all very beautiful really. And, moreover, a rare opportunity to see these paintings outside the artist’s native Norway.
With the capital fully back in the swing of things, summer 2022 in London looks set to be a season of one unmissable event followed by another unmissable event. But before you get your calendar in the twist trying to accommodate all the things you’d like to do, consider how one trip to an exhibition, show or festival can actually be turned into a whole day of events. We know that the smoothness of the journey between each location can make or break a day out in London – which is why we’ve teamed up with FREE NOW. Europe’s mobility super app lets you travel on your terms, with the choice of black cabs, private rides, eScooters and eBikes. You’ll find out more on that below!
