Exhibit at Arizona Science Center brings van Gogh to life

March 28, 2012

An exhibit at the Arizona Science center brings the paintings and writing of Vincent van Gogh to life through video screens, music and animation.

Van Gogh Alive has its North American debut at the Arizona Science Center. Sherri Sauntry, vice president of marketing and sales at Arizona Science Center in Phoenix, says the artists often played roles as innovators, so it makes sense to present this exhibit at a science center. She says visitors get to have a unique immersive experience in van Gogh’s work, and by seeing his paintings and writing together get a bigger picture of the life van Gogh led.
