Van Gogh Exhibition Featuring Virtual Reality Technology Opens in Kyiv

According to the Interfax-Ukraine Culture project, an international immersive exhibition dedicated to the work of Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh will open on April 11 at the VDNG exhibition grounds in Kyiv, the organizers report.

“Visitors will be able to literally find themselves inside Van Gogh’s paintings thanks to large-scale projections, music, and digital technologies,” the organizers note.

The exhibition will be held in Pavilion No. 7 and will run until July 26. It will occupy an area of over 2,000 square meters and combine digital installations, VR effects, and a traditional exhibition showcasing the artist’s life story.

Highlights include a recreated version of the artist’s bedroom, as well as the opportunity to view famous works, including “Starry Night” and “Sunflowers,” in 360° format.

“This is an opportunity to immerse yourself in Van Gogh’s world and experience his art in a new way,” the organizers emphasize.

It is noted that the exhibition has already been presented in a number of cities around the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, and Dubai, where it was visited by millions of viewers.

As reported, Vincent van Gogh’s painting “Landscape with a Farmhouse” was sold at the TEFAF international art and antiques fair in Maastricht for $13.5 million.
