Vincent Van Gogh

Comes alive in the Immersive Experience Van Gogh’s dream world is illuminated for all to experience as his artwork comes alive with musical melodies at Atlanta’s Pullman Yard.

Story by Terry Check When visiting a fine art museum, like the Louvre in Paris, Tate Modern in London, or the MET in New York, you see original artwork of the world’s greatest artists, simply hanging on a wall, often with three or four rows of visitors viewing the artwork. Experiencing artwork at a museum is no comparison to being literally immersed, body and soul, in the world of the Dutch master, Vincent van Gogh, an art experience second to none.

Even though the artist created more than 2,000 artworks in the last decade of his life, he lived in poverty, suffered from depression, cutoff his left ear in a fit of rage and delivered the ear to a woman at a brothel that was frequented by he and his brother, Theo. After the self-mutilation of his left ear, Van Gogh admitted himself to SaintPaul-de-Mausole, “lunatic asylum” in the spring of 1889.

While suffering from delusions and hallucinations and with limited access to outdoor visits or windows to view the outside world, so important to his paintings, Vincent continued his work, painting landscapes and flowers of what he could see, and using artwork from other artists to draw his inspiration while living in two barred-window cells with one used as his studio. In the fall of 1889, several of his paintings including Starry night and The Irises, were exhibited artworks in Paris and then Brussels to the acclaim of the art community. Unfortunately, Vincent was too ill to appreciate the accolades. In the summer of 1890, the 37-year-old artist committed suicide with a single gunshot to his chest. His last words or maybe, the words of his brother, Theo were “The sadness will last forever.”

In order to experience the artistic genius of Vincent van Gogh together with the sadness that he endured throughout his life, or the sadness of the world losing van Gogh, visitors can walk and relive the artist’s life at the Vincent Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience either at the Pullman Yards in Atlanta, or later this year, in cities throughout the United States, listed at www.vangoghexpo.com.

The 60-75 minutes show features more than 300 artworks, still or moving projections encompassing several voluminous rooms of art immersion and music, the artist’s letters to his brother depicting the meaning of the artworks, and a children’s area for creating their artwork.

The virtual reality experience, “A Day in the life of Vincent Van Gogh” allows visitors to walk with van Gogh through the glorious wheat fields, living in his quaint apartments and stroll the magical streets of Arles and Auvers

sur Oise, France, where he lived during his later years.

As one of 66 exhibitions around the world, this illumination and music show, a digital art exhibition, has been created, produced, and distributed by Exhibition Hub. Referring to the 10-minute, virtual reality, interactive portion of the exhibition, Mario Iacampo, company CEO, commented on news media, “We wake up in the morning to the sound of roosters and we are in Van Gogh’s bedroom that he painted. We come out and travel through the city of Arles. We stop to watch the scene that sparked Van Gogh to paint a certain scene.”
