Characterized by expressive colors and dramatic, bold brush strokes, it鈥檚 easy to get lost in the works of Vincent Van Gogh. And if you鈥檝e ever daydreamed about what it would be like to literally step inside one of the impressionist painter鈥檚 pieces, well, we have an experience for you.
From June 25 to Aug. 15, TCF Center in Detroit will host听Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience. The 3D, traveling installation allows guests to get up close to Van Gogh鈥檚 artwork. Ticketholders can explore more than 300 of the artist鈥檚 paintings 鈥 including 鈥淭he Starry Night,鈥 鈥淪unflowers,鈥 and 鈥淐af茅 Terrace at Night鈥 鈥 as they鈥檙e projected onto the venue鈥檚 walls. Van Gogh鈥檚 own words, set to a symphonic score, complement the display.听
The exhibit was created by French-Canadian creative director Mathieu St-Arnaud and his team at Normal Studio, a Montreal-based agency that works on multisensory and interactive installations.听Beyond Van Gogh听is among several immersive experiences featuring the Dutch painter鈥檚 work that are currently popping up across the country 鈥 similar installations from different creatives and production companies are traveling to cities like Denver, Miami, and Dallas in the coming year. Additionally, a second Van Gogh installation called听Immersive Van Gogh听comes to a secret venue in Detroit in late October.
