The scream was created in the year 1983 by the artist Edvard Munch
The type is oil
, tempera and pastel on cardboard.
The dimensions are 91 cm × 73.5 cm (36 in × 28.9 in)
Finally the location: Location National Gallery, Oslo


History:
The Scream is the title of expressionist paintings
and prints in a series by Norwegian artists Edvard Munch showing an agonized figure against a blood red sky. The landscape in the background is Oslofjord viewed from the hill of Ekeberg in Oslo Norway

I like because the scream is a great paint, I see this work art and it's amazing the colors the form of Munch painted the landscape, the sky and the river.
The man who is screaming in the bridge catch my imagination, because this man is scream ¿why? I don't know really, but one cause I think is the fear hahahahahhaa! Also the two mans walk in the background are special, because they are the everyday, this bridge a normally place, the man screaming is the different, therefore this man is the masterpiece in the paint.

I saw the scream for the first time in the TV program "the simpsons" but I don't know the name of the paint....So in a work for school I search the expressionist paintings
in this work the scream is one of the paintings representative of this movement. The Expressionism was a cultural movement, initially in poetry and painting, originating in Germany at the start of the 20th century

The scream is make special, because is one of the most recognized paints in the world. And the movement who belong the scream is the best paint in the world, so the screaming becomes a symbol and referent of the expressionist Paintings.

The image is only and you in anyplace can recognize the scream, because this picture is not lost.

My favorite website: Twitter




My favourite website is Twitter.
I visit this page whenever I can, normally 5 time in a day or more, sometime I open the twitter all day.
Bellow a definition of twitter: Twitter is a social networking and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author's profile page and delivered to the author's subscribers who are known as followers. (wikipedia).
For my twitter is a world social tool for comment different topics. Too twitter had a many cause in the world as the oil spill.
I found this page alone. I created my twtiter in December of 2009, but I use frequently twitter after the earthquake 8.8 in February, because in twitter the information was more quickly than the breaking news in the TV.
I like because twitter entertain my whit the latest information and other topics.
The best thing in twitter is: each user can write only in 140 character, this characteristics difference whit others social webs.
For example: The 140-character limit on message length was initially set for compatibility with SMS messaging.
I believe that nothing in twitter id bad. I like twitter has everything from talk and greet in only 140 characters to post photos, polls, or almost anything you want. One of the major uses today is the "stream" or twitt cam, allowing real-time display of a friend, is identical to a video conference but this is home. That's why twitter does not have cons with the exception of the "whale" or "over capacity" to indicate that twitter was full of countless "twitter" at a time. I recommend using this page because it is very effective in sharing real-time news.

The place I like best is a eucalyptus tree, dated the bicentennial or two hundred years old.
