享誉世界的挪威艺术家爱德华•蒙克代表作《呐喊》5月2日在纽约苏富比印象派及现代艺术专场拍卖上，最终以1.07亿美元落槌，加上佣金为
1.199亿美元(约合7.553亿人民币)，并创下了世界艺术品拍卖纪录。之前的拍卖价格纪录是毕加索1.06亿的《裸体、绿叶和半身像》。
这次拍卖在未开始之前，已经被业内人士视为是最近10年最重要的拍卖之一。蒙克总共创作了4个版本《呐喊》，这次拍卖的是他1895年创作的版本，
由挪威商人彼得·奥尔森收藏，他的父亲托马斯·奥尔森是蒙克的朋友、邻居及艺术赞助人。这也是唯一一幅由私人收藏的《呐喊》。而且，不同于其他版本，这一
版《呐喊》是“色彩最丰富、最鲜亮”一幅。
这次拍卖在未开始之前，已经被业内人士视为是最近10年最重要的拍卖之一。此画的拍卖十分激烈，起拍价为四千万美元，很快冲破拍卖行预估的八千万美 元，最终以1.07亿美元(约合6.74亿人民币)落槌，加佣金后成交价为1.199亿美元(约合7.553亿人民币)，成为有史以来最贵的拍品。拍卖吸 引了众多国际买家的强烈关注，以至于网上交易平台无法登陆。
蒙克完成于19世纪末20世纪初的《呐喊》是世界艺术史上众所周知的杰作。画面通过奇特的人物造型、动荡的线条、燃烧的血红色云以及象征死亡的黑色，表现出现代社会的焦虑和人类的苦闷。
据苏富比拍卖行介绍，本次拍卖的《呐喊》是四个版本中唯一被私人收藏的作品。其他三个版本均被博物馆收藏。蒙克创作了四个版本的《呐喊》，其中 1893年蛋彩与蜡笔绘于木板上的最初版本现藏于挪威国家艺术馆；另一粉彩版本同样绘于1893年，由奥斯陆的蒙克博物馆典藏；最后一个版本作于1910 年，以蛋彩和油彩绘于木板上，也藏于蒙克博物馆。除此之外，蒙克1895年创作的石版画成为《呐喊》普及化的开端， 开创社会大众对其图像的认知。
本次作为拍品的《呐喊》来自挪威商人奥尔森的收藏，画作以粉彩绘于木板，作于1895年，与挪威国家艺廊版本最为近似。
拍卖商介绍，这幅《呐喊》与其它版本相比较，有几个“特别出色之处”：色彩最为鲜明；四个版本中唯一由蒙克亲手为画框上漆，并题下诗句纪录创作灵感；画中背景两人其中一人向外望向市景。本作于数十年前在美国华盛顿特区国家艺术馆短期展出过。
这幅《呐喊》由奥尔森家族收藏逾70年。挪威航运巨子托马斯•奥尔森
曾在维斯滕镇与艺术家毗邻而居，进而结为莫逆之交。奥尔森家族曾资助蒙克并收藏其作品，纳粹占领时期保护其画作免于战火摧毁。
苏富比宣称，《呐喊》“在学术界或者普罗大众间的知名度大约仅次于达•芬奇的《蒙娜莉莎》。该画在4月曾在英国伦敦等地进行了预展。
此前拍卖出的最昂贵艺术品是毕加索1932年创作的《裸体、绿叶和半身像》，被加士得拍卖行于2010年以1.06亿美元售出。

艺术家简介：爱德华·蒙克
爱德华·蒙克（Edvard Munch，1863年12月12日 – 1944年1月23日）是挪威表现主义画家和版画家。伟大的挪威画家，现代表现主义绘画的先驱。爱德华·蒙克是具有世界声誉的挪威艺术家，他的绘画带有强 烈的主观性和悲伤压抑的情调。毕加索、马蒂斯就曾吸收他的艺术养料，德国和法国的一些艺术家也从他的作品中得到启发。他对心理苦闷的强烈的，呼唤式的处理 手法对20世纪初德国表现主义的成长起了主要的影响。
Experts had expected the masterpiece to break new ground at the famed New York auction house; its presale estimate of at least $80 million was the highest ever listed at Sotheby’s. The 1895 artwork — a modern symbol of human anxiety — sold for $119,922,500, which includes the premium paid to Sotheby’s.
Previously, the most expensive artwork ever sold there was Pablo Picasso’s painting “Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust,” which brought in $106.5 million two years ago at Christie’s in New York. The previous record for a Munch work of art was just over $38 million.
Dubbed “the portrait of a soul” and “the face that launched 1,000 therapists,” “The Scream” (Norwegian: Skrik) depicts a distorted human figure — hands flat against its sunken face, eyes and mouth wide open — in the foreground of a nightmarish landscape.
The 1895 pastel version of “The Scream” on the block Wednesday was one of four — two pastels and two paintings — executed between 1893 and 1910, Sotheby’s said, and is one of the best-known images in modern art.
It’s also the only version a private collector can get their hands on at public auction. The other three are housed in National Gallery of Norway (1893 painting) and at the Munch Museum (1910 painting and 1893 pastel) in the Norwegian capital, Oslo, according to Sotheby’s. TThe Scream has been the target of several high-profile art thefts. In 1994, the version in the National Gallery was stolen. It was recovered several months later. In 2004, The Scream and Madonna were stolen from the Munch Museum, and recovered two years later.
The 1895 pastel is being sold by Norwegian businessman Petter Olsen, whose father is thought to have been a friend and patron of the famed artist.
Sotheby’s said the pastel-on-board version of “The Scream” is the most colorful and vibrant of the four and the only version whose frame was hand-painted by the artist to include his poem, detailing the work’s inspiration.
“I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly, the sky turned as red as blood,” Munch wrote, describing how the idea for the painting came about. “I stopped and leaned against the fence, feeling unspeakably tired. Tongues of fire and blood stretched over the bluish black fjord. My friends went on walking, while I lagged behind, shivering with fear. Then I heard the enormous, infinite scream of nature.”
The image, used by everyone from Warhol to Hollywood to cartoons to
teacups and T-shirts, has become part of pop culture and a universal
symbol of angst and existential dread. Together with the Mona Lisa, it’s
the most famous and recognized image in art history. It has inspired
film references, including the knife-wielding villain of the Scream
slasher movies, and the aftershave scene in Home Alone where Macaulay
Culkin imitates the painting’s famous pose.
Only two other works besides Picasso’s Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust have sold for more than $100 million at auction. Those are Picasso’s Boy With a Pipe (The Young Apprentice) for $104.1 million in 2004 and Alberto Giacometti’s Walking Man I for $104.3 million in 2010.
