Immersive Van Gogh Cleveland. What an experience! Have you gone? If not, you should!
Once again I’m behind in posting. I’ve been focused on editing my second novel. Now that it’s done, I’m finally catching up on some of my blog topics. We attended Immersive Van Gogh Cleveland at the end of last year, but it was so amazing, I still wanted to blog about it. And since you can still buy tickets (through May 2022 at this point), it’s worth a rave review.
Since it’s posted at the event that they welcome sharing through social media, you can see I’ve included some photos and video for you to enjoy. When you’re looking at them, keep in mind these pictures are filling all four walls of a very large room. The pictures and video can’t do it justice.
You don’t have to be an art connoisseur to appreciate this experience. It’s a new way to surround yourself with Van Gogh’s art with movement and music. We entered a large room. (If you pick a busy time, be prepared to sit on the floor because there aren’t many benches.) The room is dark except for the masterpieces of art projected on all four walls, moving and merging. The elements of each painting have been separated to give a 2D effect. Music fills the space matching the emotion of the paintings being viewed. I could have easily sat through the show several times since there is so much for the eyes to take in.
Some of the art included in the presentation are The Potato Eaters (1885), Starry Night (1889), Sunflowers (1888), and The Bedroom (1889), and so much more. Check out this website for more information, including other cities the exhibit is or will be in.Â
