Join us Friday, January 8th for a mid-day of Culture at the Dali Museum.
The morning begins at 10am with entry to the Dali Museum which includes the current exhibit of Van Gogh Alive. After touring the museum we will have lunch at the Hangar Restaurant and Flight Lounge at the Albert Whittlefeld airport.
Experience Vincent van Gogh’s works in an immersive art installation that opens a new window into the celebrated painter’s artistic genius. From his famous “Starry Night” to his radiant “Sunflowers,” Van Gogh’s vibrant work invites viewers to revel in color, light and sound. Visitors will feel the sensation of walking right into Van Gogh’s paintings – an experience that is both educational and inspiring.
The exhibition features more than 3,000 Van Gogh images at enormous scale, viewed through high-definition projectors and synchronized to a powerful classical score. Cinema-quality surround-sound amplifies the emotion generated by the works themselves. In addition to the iconic works featured, visitors can examine Van Gogh’s inspiration via photographs and video displayed alongside them. The installation is powered by SENSORY4™, a unique system developed by Grande Experiences of Melbourne, Australia.
The Dalí is the first North American venue to host this mesmerizing version of Van Gogh Alive. The Dalí’s presentation of this experience builds on the Museum’s commitment to artistic innovation, inviting visitors to experience another provocative artist in an entirely new, entirely accessible and entirely transformative way.
