‘Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience’ will stay in Indio for a limited engagement

INDIO — The Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit in New York City turned the art and vision of Vincent Van Gogh into a unique virtual sensory experience for art lovers to enjoy. Now, it’s coming to the Coachella Valley where it is expected to do the same.

Created by French-Canadian creative director Mathieu St-Arnaud and his team at Montreal’s Normal Studio, Beyond Van Gogh is an immersive experience showcasing over 300 of the artist’s works.

Occupying more than 30,000 square feet, Beyond Van Gogh is the largest immersive experience in the country, offering guests ample room to safely enjoy the exhibit.

After tremendous successes in Europe, the cinematic exhibitions have crossed the ocean to great North American acclaim in recent years. As immersive art installations deeply resonate around the globe, “Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience” will stay in Indio for a limited engagement before moving across North America.

Beyond Van Gogh is a rich and unique multimedia experience, taking the viewer on a journey through more than 300 iconic artworks including instantly-recognizable classics “The Starry Night,” “Sunflowers,” and “Cafe Terrace at Night,” now freed from their frames, according to ShowClix.com.

Set to a symphonic score and using the artist’s own dreams, thoughts, and words to drive the experience as a narrative, Van Gogh’s art comes to life by appearing and disappearing, flowing across multiple surfaces and heightening the senses with their immense detail. Guests will leave with a new appreciation of this prolific artist’s stunning work.

The exhibit opens Sept. 30 and runs through Nov. 27 at The Forum at Empire Polo Club, 81800 51st Ave. Your tour will take about one hour.

The hours of operation are:

  • Tuesday – Thursday, Sunday: 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. (last entry 7 p.m.)
  • Friday & Saturday: 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. (last entry 8 p.m.)
