If you haven’t seen this exhibition, I do recommend you to go! I guess it has been shown in a great many countries by now – and finally here in Malmoe too.
Vincent Van Gogh has always fascinated me, his paintings as well as his grim fate. This digital exhibition is a wonder in both pictures and music. We stayed for hours, walking, sitting, being totally soaked up in his world. I also liked very much the concept of people getting portrayed as silhouettes against his works. An inspirational evening indeed.
If you happen to have this exhibition in your city, please go and see it – being immersed in beautiful images to enchanting music – what more can you ask for?

Lovely!
Thank you!
I’m thankful to have seen it in San Francisco during the pandemic. The silver lining is that I had plenty of space and it was my date and I enjoying a break away from home, making it all the more special.
Sounds lovely!
I am glad you got to see it. It’s a great exhibit, and your beautiful photos show that.
Thank you, yes, I am glad too. Now I would love to see the Monet exhibition too – but that is in Stockholm now.
I saw it in Paris, it was so interesting to see his work up close and personal
Isn’t it! I would love to see Monet too, but that exhibition is in Stockholm now.
Doing the rounds
If only! It’s like being a part of his landscape, the scale and those silhouettes.
Yes!
Van Gogh is a great painter, we visited an exhibition in the Netherlands last year (but not this one)
Yes. And mostly self taught.
Certainly looks an inspirational exhibition, A C!

Love those irises! Unfortunately we don’t get these sort of exhibitions in the south west of the country. Big cities I imagine.
It’s the same here, and the one of Monet went only to Stockholm. That is a bit too far to go.
Thank you for your recommendation Leya, I hope that a replica of this Van Gogh collection can arrive in Lima-Peru. At the moment, I’m enjoying it virtually on Google.
Thank you – I hope so too!
I know of two competing exhibits like this … and I saw both with one being much better than the other. But the lesser had better ”additional” exhibits. In southern France there is a large cave projecting images on the walls as one walks around. Now that was unbelievable! (but I didn’t see the Van Gogh show there.)
Yes, there are other exhibits, but i think it is worth going on any of them!
We are lucky to have a lot of his work in Amsterdam in the Van Gogh Museum. He is fascinating. If you ever can visit Arles and surroundings in the Provence
Thank you, yes I have been to Amsterdam and Arles.
It arrives here in April. I’m really looking forward to it. Thanks for the preview

I loved the one that came to Oregon! Apparently, there are a few different productions with slightly different music and slide sequences, but the experience is totally engaging and transcendant!
Agree, fascinating!
I visited it. It is really a great exhibition. If i had time i would sit all day in there.
I agree, we did not want to leave!
One hundred and twenty kilometres sometimes can be a ‘long’ distance. The exhibit has been in Sydney twice methinks towards the end of the official Covid era . . .without yours truly having had the chance . . . Am not certain but besides being rather expensive methinks one was limited to 45 minutes in time? Looking at your photos I am sorry not to have had the experience . . . thank you . . .
Dear Eha, 45 minutes? We had a time slot of 2 hours…and it was needed. Hope you enjoyed the post anyway! Next week there will be a second part. Keep well – is it hot over there now?
Loved the post . . . shall look out next week . ..oh, the timing goes alongside the expected revenue I would say 🙂 ! This is an island continent of many climes . . . the fourth cyclone of the season about to break the country up north . . . here thunderstorms and outages are nearly daily but almost cool . . . nought much over 31-34 C . . .
Oh! Too warm for me …but I guess when one lives there – one get used to it. Do you believe there have been more cyclones and rains and droughts the latest years? Our climate has changed a lot, more rains and more droughts and more wind.

We saw it here last year. Lovely indeed
I believe there are many different versions of it, but it seems to be much appreciated everywhere
