The delectably immersive Van Gogh Alive’s art experience is back in Europe this summer after mesmerizing 8 million people in 70 different cities.

Thousands of sights and sounds depicting the work of one of the greatest artists of our time coat the walls and floors of a purpose-built, multi-roomed space over 2,000 square meters large.

Guests are invited to sit among projections of the Dutch artist’s most iconic works, with opportunities to learn about and recreate the art yourself.

Its current base is in among the lush greenery of London’s Kensington Gardens, directly across from the Royal Albert Hall. You can purchase tickets from now up until September 26 before the experience heads north to Manchester from October 22.

What can visitors to Van Gogh Alive expect from the experience?

You’ll be welcomed by over 3,000 images that are spectacularly presented through the living, breathing walls of Kensington Gardens. It’s a beautiful, often tragic narrative that guides you through the complete journey that was Vincent Van Gogh’s life.

The exhibition includes show-stopping, animated works of Starry Night, Sunflowers and the lesser-known paintings that were inspired by Van Gogh’s love of Japanese woodprints.

The gallery combines state-of-the-art technology that aspires to make the paintings live and breathe across the room, with the curators going as far as diffusing the smells of Provence, France, into the cavernous space to emulate the region the artist created some of his best work.

The exhibition is constantly finding new ways to entertain its visitors

“We first displayed in 2011 at Singapore ArtScience Museum and have without fail updated and upgraded the experience annually since,” says Rob Kirk, who has worked at the helm of the exhibition since its inception.

“This involves continually enhancing and improving the immersive content by adding in new sections, animations, text, constantly upgrading the technology to ensure we remain at the cutting-edge.”

He says new visitors to Van Gogh Alive are in for its most enhanced version yet. Recent developments have included interactive, Instagram-friendly components such as Vincent’s Bedroom display, the Sunflower selfie room and the exhibit’s Art Tutorial Studios, where guests are encouraged to get creative.

Van Gogh Alive’s return to Europe has proven to be a success on social media, too.

Where will Van Gogh Alive head next?

The animated gallery has recently opened in Adelaide and next on the schedule in the coming weeks are Denver, Beijing, Munich plus the next stops of our UK tour (in Manchester’s Media City).

There are also plans to expand the exhibition’s presence across Asia and America, so watch this space.

Emphasizing that Iran has proved its seriousness and goodwill, the official said, “It is now up to the United States to make its tough decision and give up its failed maximum pressure policy.”

According to the senior official, Iran is ready to resume the full implementation of its obligations in the JCPOA if the negotiations meet the demands of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which are based on the definite positions of the Establishment.

Noting that Iran will not allow the negotiations to be eroded or hastened, he said, “Negotiations continue as long as we feel that the other side is serious and wants a solution.”

“The issue of an interim agreement has long been off the agenda, and we are only negotiating the full implementation of the commitments, and there will be no intermediate steps or interim, preliminary or step-by-step agreements,” he added.

He went on to say, “We have now gone through more or less a difficult stage of negotiating concepts, and we have reached an equally difficult stage, the stage of negotiating draft. Of course, in terms of concepts, there are still some unresolved issues.”

“All the sanctions that Trump has imposed have been to destroy the JCPOA in the hope of a better deal. Therefore, all of them are evaluated in the direction of the JCPOA and are somehow related to it,” he added.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran believes that all sanctions should be lifted and this does not contradict the return to the JCPOA, because all the sanctions that currently exist against the Islamic Republic of Iran are sanctions aimed at destroying the deal,” the senior official noted.

Rejecting the continuation of talks on other issues, he added, “Our advice to the other side is that instead of thinking about any future negotiations, they should try to strengthen the outcome of the current negotiations and bring the negotiations to an end so that the outcome becomes a good experience. So far we have not had a good experience in negotiating with the West.”
