The Immersive Van Gogh exhibition is a must see in Scottsdale, as it's a completely new way to experience the works of this great artist.
As you step inside the digital experience your senses will be overwhelmed by both the sights and sounds inside the Lighthouse Immersive art studio set up at 4301 N. Scottsdale Road.
Immersive Van Gogh is the latest creation by the world-renowned master of digital art, Italy's Massimiliano Siccardi, who for 30 years has been pioneering immersive exhibitions in Europe. More than 2 million visitors have seen his magnificent installations.
Lose yourself in 500,000 cubic feet of monumental projections animating Vincent Van Gogh’s oeuvre. Wander through entrancing, moving images that highlight brushstrokes, detail, and color – truly illuminating the mind of the genius.
You will be immersed in Van Gogh’s works – from his sunny landscapes and night scenes to his portraits and still life paintings. The installation includes the Mangeurs de pommes de terre (The Potato Eaters, 1885), the Nuit étoilée (Starry Night, 1889), Les Tournesols (Sunflowers, 1888), and La Chambre à coucher (The Bedroom, 1889), and more.
With the help of 60,600 frames of video, 90,000,000 pixels, and 500,000-plus cubic feet of projections, this captivating digital art exhibit merges state-of-the-art technology, theatrical storytelling, and world-class animation. It gives guests the rare opportunity to "step inside" and experience the incredible post-Impressionist works of Van Gogh like never before.
Astonishing in scale and breathtakingly imaginative, you will experience Van Gogh’s art in a completely new and unforgettable way.
The hour-long, timed-entry, walk-through experience is designed with health and safety as a priority. Capacity is limited in accordance with area safety protocols. Additional safety precautions include touchless ticket-taking, hand sanitizer stations, social distancing markers throughout the venue and digitally projected social distancing circles on the gallery floors to ensure appropriate spacing. 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," said Svetlana Dvoretsky, co-producer. "Hundreds of thousands of 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.
The exhibit is designed and conceived by Siccardi, with soundtrack by Luca Longobardi, who both pioneered immersive digital art experiences in France.
Originally scheduled to open in July, the opening was pushed back to Aug. 26 and is scheduled to be in town until Nov. 28. Tickets are available at www.VanGoghPHX.com, with prices starting at $39.99.
