Immerse Yourself in Art at the ‘Beyond Van Gogh’ Experience

Do you ever stare at a beautiful work of art and wish you could just step inside its frame to experience the world that’s captured on canvas? There’s an amazing opportunity to do so this summer right here in Austin! Beyond Van Gogh: An Immersive Experience has been on view around the world, and is now set up at the Circuit of the Americas in the Starry Night Pavilion through Sept. 5 for Central Texas visitors to enjoy.

Beyond Van Gogh: An Immersive Experience features more than 300 of Vincent Van Gogh’s iconic artworks and takes you into a three-dimensional world. While you walk through this exhibit, you journey through masterpieces, including the instantly-recognizable classics such as “The Starry Night,” “Sunflowers,” and ‘Café Terrace at Night”. Van Gogh’s art comes to life by appearing and disappearing, flowing across multiple surfaces, and heightening the senses with their immense detail. You will also hear the artists’ own words set to a symphonic score during your visit.

This unique multimedia experience uses cutting-edge technology developed by some of the world’s greatest AV designers, which breathes new life into Van Gogh’s body of work. Using the artist’s own dreams, thoughts, and words to drive the experience as a narrative, guests move along projection-swathed walls wrapped in light and color that swirls, dances, and refocuses into flowers, cafes, and landscapes. It’s really a magical art adventure!
