They still charged 100 NOK for entrance, but about Munch they said... "come back later. We shall have everything in one building, then." Well, I guess once that happens it will be great, but what about in-between?! There were some other fine paintings on display, though.

You get a ticket for all four museums, except that, when I went, the modern collection was closed. Some interesting exhibits, including an installation by Ai Wei Wei. However, the design museum is worth the price of the ticket alone. Good cafés.

Then again, this ticket is valid for three different buildings in the arts complex and in...
