Tóm tắt

That Van Gogh’s works have been chosen for tech-infused exhibitions is influenced by three main factors. Firstly, the artist’s intense use of colors and vigorous brushstrokes makes them well-suited to large-scale projection, creating interactive and appealing showcases. His emotion-filled and expression-driven style resonates profoundly with audiences, generating strong emotional responses that are even maximized in an immersive context. In addition, Van Gogh’s personal life with mental struggles and financial challenges adds a deep layer of relatability for young people facing similar issues. His work explores universal themes, such as beauty, suffering, and resilience, regardless of cultural and temporal barriers. Therefore, his art becomes accessible and meaningful to a larger audience community, helping them in the process of self-recovery and discovery. The combination of these elements makes Van Gogh’s art collection compatible with virtual reality displays, offering a multi-sensory experience that appeals to and inspires people.
