Manila Van Gogh Multi-Sensory Experience Exhibition Enter the moving gallery Van Gogh Alive
I am very looking forward to and excited to visit Manila's "Van Gogh Multi-Sensory Experience Exhibition" this time. In the past, exhibitions in Asia were only available in China, Hong Kong and other places. In the Philippines, you can witness with your own eyes an event that has not even been opened in Taiwan. In addition to allowing the audience to learn about Van Gogh's life story, it also provides a way to get rid of the traditional boring exhibition experience. The use of advanced high-definition projectors makes you feel more like watching a vivid movie. Stories replace the artistic enjoyment of silence.▍You can’t buy tickets online, come and line up on site
Since this exhibition is from 2024/10/26 to 2024/12/8, when the online ticket sales were opened, they were sold out in a short time. Friends who didn’t get the tickets don’t be discouraged and go to BGC like Dad. Purchase tickets at the exhibition ticket booth on the 4th floor of the shopping mall and find an event that suits your free time to visit.

At P750 (adults) and P450 (children and students), experiencing Van Gogh is not cheap at this price point. One ticket provides a time slot of about an hour and a half, meaning you can watch two 45-minute shows, with crowd sizes controlled per time slot and only a certain number of visitors allowed in at any given time.
▍People lining up at the scene
When Dad Niu visited, it was during the weekdays. I was a little surprised that there were also many people waiting to participate in the exhibition during the weekdays. It seems that the crowds on holidays are so lively. I suggest that if you are free on weekdays, you can try to avoid it. Crowds of people visit during the holidays.
▍The decorative art of Van Gogh’s bedroom
Before the experience itself, there is a prelude space dedicated to explaining the identity of Vincent Van Gogh, about who Van Gogh was and information about selected works of his. There is also an interactive display of Van Gogh’s bedroom, drawn from the memory of his sanctuary in Saint-Rémy, a space that allows easy entry into his life and through which he created extraordinary artistic masterpieces. Of course, through interaction you can explore the tiny spaces and go in and take photos.

The gallery features a selection of works by Vincent Van Gogh and represents a specific period in his life.

▍Multi-sensory experience in the second exhibition hall
High-definition projectors surround a maze of screens. But what really makes people hallucinate is the "cinema-quality" three-dimensional surround sound, which reverberates in every space and seems to expand the exhibition. The approximately 45-minute playback project includes text, images, oil painting animations, motion graphics, etc., Telling the story of Van Gogh's journey as a painter, each screen varies in content and sequence, providing a live performance that is both decorative and highly vivid.
▍Sit in rows and have a spiritual exchange with Van Gogh quietly.
Unlike the Paris version, images of the exhibition are only projected onto the walls of the various cut-out spaces. Don't expect high ceilings and high definition projections on the floor. Although the visual extension effect is reduced, overall, Daniu feels that this experience is still good.

In addition to calming music and exquisite artwork, there are also many excerpts from Vincent Van Gogh's own letters, allowing people to better understand his extraordinary life, thus completing an unforgettable and profound experience. During the performance, the music ranges from optimistic to gloomy, and the exhibited works travel through the Netherlands, Paris, Arles, Saint-Rémy and the banks of the Oise River in order, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in Vincent's life.
