EUR99.00EUR
Let me guide you into Van Gogh’s world, the world’s largest collection of his artworks.
“Paintings have a life of their own that derives from the painter's soul.
I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.” Vincent Van Gogh
You will see how he became obsessed with the power of color as a symbol and evolved his own style of great swirling brushstrokes. Among many of his amazing artworks, you will see Sunflowers that was painted during van Gogh's stay in Arles before his decline into insanity. The entire canvas is based on broad, thickly painted areas of yellows and browns.
I suggest to visit “Hockney – Van Gogh: The Joy of Nature” (temporary exhibition 1 March - 26 May) in addition to permanent exhibition and discover more parallels between the two artists.
1 hour - 15-30 min coffee break (optional) - 1 hour
