This may have been covered, if so my bad.

11 of us from early 20's to 70's went on the 23rd. All enjoyed it, well worth it even if not really into his art.
Definitely do the VR experience, I have seen the future, unbelievable effects.

I just tried to look up, Van Goua Immersion exhibit. Nothing. Do you mean, Van Gogh?

Spelling does matter.

No idea what "Van Goua Immersion exhib" refers to, but for the first time ever I like the advertisement photo of "Valuable coins" at the bottom of the post.
These coins were in use in The Netherlands until 2002, when they were replaced by the Euro.
The silver-coloured one on the left has the image of Queen Juliana, the second one from the right I believe, is Queen Beatrix, the one on the far right Queen Juliana again.
Yes, I remember those coins well !
So, whoever posted this picture: Thanks for the memories!

Not me!

Check the web for what it is, best way. Around the US at different times, in Pittsburgh, PA until end of March. We saw it in DC.

Thanks to the folks who pointed out that “Van Goua” should have been “Van Gogh”. I’m sure many of us would have never figured it out👍

I can second that. I saw it earlier this year in Los Angeles and it is amazing. After awhile I got so aborbed in it that time just flew by. Well worthwhile.

My wife and I saw the exhibit in early November in Seattle. I think there are a couple of companies touring the exhibits in the US.
It is well worth the time and ticket to see it. The video parts are truly amazing.

I saw an exhibit of Van Gogh paintings around 1960. Impressive. If I ever get to Europe I'll try to get to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam. Hopefully if will reopen again.

My wife and two sisters set up a river cruise for there in August, hopefully by then this latest version will have burned thru and it will die down into the new norm. I realize many have really paid the automate price, but for me it is extremely hard to believe it has been almost two years. I keep thinking it was only last Xmas I saw my mom and not two Xmas's ago. It seems as if I'm in a time machine and can't figure what I've done in the last two years (22.5 months).

Went on a river cruise, and one of the excursions was to Auvers where they have an "In the footsteps of Vincent" walking tour. They have posters up around the town showing his paintings from the exact location he painted them.
