Van Gogh (1853 – 1890) is arguably one of the most famous and influential figures in the history of Western art. His masterworks have been on display in galleries around the world for over a century. Starry Night, Sunflowers, Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear, Wheatfield with Crows, and hundreds of others.
Even if you haven’t caught any of these iconic works at a showing, you’re likely familiar with at least one of them. Reproductions of Van Gogh’s art can be found virtually everywhere, from posters and coffee cups to t-shirts and city walls.
One thing is for sure. You’ve never seen Van Gogh’s work like you will at Biltmore during Van Gogh Alive.
Van Gogh Alive at Biltmore Estate
Van Gogh Alive is a moving and powerful exhibition using light, color, sound, and scent to immerse you in Van Gogh’s world.
More than 3,000 images of the master’s work and world are rendered at enormous scale, using state of the art, high-definition projectors. Synchronized classical music accompanies the exhibit in cinema-quality surround-sound. Additional photographs and videos round out the experience.
The effect of the exhibition can be entrancing. Sometimes you almost feel you’ve merged right into the paintings, as if daubed there by the painter’s brush.
Van Gogh Alive is presented in Biltmore’s Amherst at Deerpark exhibition space until March 5th, 2022. Three levels of tickets are available and all include a daytime visit to Biltmore House.
