User reviews
- Would give a 6.....fabulous!
- Saw the show the first time in NYC several months ago. Enjoyed it just as much today.
- Best event I have been to in years, exceeded my expectations. I was not disappointed in anyway and I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect. Very informational and I learned a lot about Van Gogh and his short life and art. I purchased the CD and listened to it on my way home and will listen to it many more times. Thank you for bringing it to the Capital District.
- It was amazing. I appreciated being able to walk through at my own pace. The other viewers and the people working there were all so courteous and helpful. The only thing that could have been different would be to use the ceiling also. I truly thought this was an amazing experience. Thank you !
- Such a great experience!! It was so amazing to be surrounded by the art, the colors, the sound. I couldn't help but be amazed, and almost overwhelmed by it. And I definitely recommend the VR experience. Absolutely amazing! Loved all of it!
- Second time and loved every minute. Deeply satisfying time.
- Handicap access was excellent. I appreciated the large number of benches that were available. Van Gogh was my deceased husband’s favorite, so this was especially meaningful to me.
- My wife’s bR speakers did not work, but the staff was great. They refunded our cost of the VR admission and gave us a poster. We were pleased as Ms want to try to return.
- Fantastic! Great variety of activities for the whole family. Would definitely come back for another visit.
- There was a lot of interesting information to read about Van Gogh before the main feature. The main part had Van Gogh’s art projected on the walls and floor of a large room. It was both beautiful to look at and very relaxing with the sound track that was played. The paintings “came alive” and parts moved and danced before your eyes. The virtual reality part is a must do. It is an incredible experience. The workers were very nice. They offered to take pictures of our group.
- Wonderful! Total immersion in Van Gogh's art, and the accompanying music was perfect. The VR trip to Arles was amazing too. We're so glad we experienced this.
- It was great experience except people speak too loud.
- You don't have to be an art lover to appreciate this...it's AWESOME!
- The whole experience was amazing. All the people working there were all so pleasant and helpful. It was great to see young adults working this venue they all were very happy and kind.
- L O V E D it! Such a visual treat. I'm usually more...aesthetically... attracted to the work of the Masters...but this exhibit was visceral, it gripped... I was on the verge of tears for portions of the visual immersion... SO AMAZING.
