Featuring 500,000 cubic feet of projections animating Vincent van Gogh’s art, visitors see moving images revealing brush strokes, color and detail. The exhibition includes Les Mangeurs de pommes de terre (The Potato Eaters, 1885), Nuit étoilée (Starry Night, 1889), Les Tournesols (Sunflowers, 1888), La Chambre à coucher (The Bedroom, 1889) and much more. It truly is immersive and amazing. It is dazzling with sight and sound.
