A new exhibit is coming to the North Carolina Museum of Art today that features 26 pieces by Edvard Munch, the painter who created The Scream. "Edvard Munch: Symbolism in Print" runs through Feb. 10, 2013, and adult tickets are only $5. Children 6 and under are free, as well as college students on Fridays from 5 - 9 p.m.

The exhibition explores the major themes presented by the Norwegian artist in mediums other than paint, such as lithographs and woodcuts. His art explores major questions of humanity and life, questions that over a century later are still compelling and relevant.

WRAL-TV producer Stephanie Beck was invited to tour the exhibit last week and documented her experience on Twitter. Be sure to check out her sneak peek guide before you head out to the museum!
