The second area - where you’ll spend the bulk of your time - is the immersive gallery. (One note: This small spot seems likely to get crowded.) Visitors can enter the model of Van Gogh’s yellow bedroom. You can actually go in and sit on his bed and take a selfie. The most interesting is an almost life-size model of Van Gogh’s yellow bedroom from his time living in Arles, France. In the first set of galleries, visitors view digital productions of some of Van Gogh’s paintings. A scene from the projection in the immersive gallery. He used intense colors and painted subjects kids can understand: his bedroom, the night sky, his own face.
#VAN GOGH IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCES PLUS#
It’s nice to listen to and will also drown out any chattering children.Īnother plus for kids: Vincent Van Gogh’s paintings are not abstract. There’s classical music (with some narration) playing. But at “Van Gogh,” nearly everything moves. Art museums generally present static displays in silent rooms - not really where you want to take your noisy, wiggly kids. “Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience” is pretty neat.

“Van Gogh” certainly fits that bill, but at around $125 for a family of four, is it worth the splurge? A scene from the immersive gallery features moving sunflowers. The show’s opening comes at a time when families may be seeking a new and different experience, something beautiful and escapist.
It’s open now and runs through April 2022. Think of the show as a dynamic digital art display - with music - that showcases Dutch painter Vincent Van Gogh’s life and most famous artworks. After the initial hype, a whiff of scandal and a long wait, “ Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience” has finally opened in Seattle.
