Today, his original artworks are kept in museums; however, they have been reproduced with new technology for a more modern experience. They have been featured worldwide, and they are known as the “Van Gogh Immersive Experience.”

The Van Gogh Immersive Experience features the art of Vincent Van Gogh not only through projections on a screen but also through virtual reality, 360° degree projections in a room, and audio effects. The exhibits tell the story of Van Gogh and the thought process behind his paintings.

Currently, there are 13 of the “Van Gogh Immersive Experience” exhibits in North America with two residing in Texas. Former Texas Rangers Stadium “Globe Life Park” is hosting this exhibit in Arlington until Jan. 22, 2022. The tickets can be purchased online, with prices varying between ages and group tickets.
