‘Immersive Van Gogh’ exhibit to debut in las Vegas
Art aficionados will soon be able to experience the works of post-Impressionist Vincent van Gogh in a new way when “Immersive Van Gogh” comes to the heart of Las Vegas for the first time ever.
This digital art exhibition brings Van Gogh’s art to life through 500,000 cubic feet of immersive projections, 60,600 frames of video, and 90,000,000 pixels. Immersive Van Gogh will make its Las Vegas debut at a secret location that will soon be announced.
The Las Vegas exhibition will be the ninth location to see the show, following the ongoing and sold-out exhibits in Toronto, San Francisco, and Chicago, with additional productions planned for Los Angeles and Dallas.
The exhibit will invite guests to “step inside” the works of Van Gogh, seeing his lifetime catalog of masterpieces displayed through towering projections, including “Mangeurs de Pommes de Terre (The Potato Eaters, 1885), Nuit étoilée (Starr Night, 1889), Les Tournesols (Sunflower, 1888), and La Chambre à coucher (The Bedroom, 1889).
The hour-long, timed-entry walk-through experience is designed with health and safety in mind. Capacity will be limited in accordance with Las Vegas’ citywide safety protocols, ticket-taking will be touchless, and temperatures will be checked upon arrival. Hand sanitizer stations and social distancing markers will be spread throughout the venue, and all guests must wear a face covering at all times during their visit.
“We’ve created a unique and enthralling production that functions safely during this pandemic,” says Svetlana Dvoretsky, co-producer.
“Over 200,000 guests have seen ‘Immersive Van Gogh’ in small, socially-distanced safe groups. It is an honor to bring the arts back into peoples’ lives during these times,” added Corey Ross, co-producer.
“Despite being unknown throughout his life, Van Gogh’s artwork has created a lasting impact through its emotional richness and simple beauty,” said Massimiliano Siccardi, Immersive Van Gogh designer. “Both myself and Luca Longobardi are very excited to visit Las Vegas and once again bring Van Gogh’s legacy to life in a way that is unique to the city.”
Public sale of tickets start on March 13 at 10 a.m. PT with prices starting at $59.99. To learn more, visit ImmersiveVanGogh.com.
