About Vincent van Gogh
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch painter who is one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art. Van Gogh’s innovation was in the boundless emotional nakedness rendered through his paintings and the new artistic interpretation of the form, colour symbolism, and brushstroke expression, which defined some of his most famous works, such as The Starry Night (1889). The paintings of van Gogh are housed in many galleries and private collections worldwide: in the Netherlands, France, America, Russia, and more. To show them in one exhibition is nearly impossible, but transforming them into an immersive experience allows them to be accessible to people of all ages in different cities around the world.
