Experience Van Gogh's works on his largest canvas ever in the new IMAX film Van Gogh: Brush with Genius, premiering at IMAX Melbourne Museum as part of this year's Melbourne International Film Festival.
Filmed entirely in 15/70mm film on location in France and the Netherlands, Van Gogh: Brush with Genius captures the breathtaking landscapes and extraordinary colours of Van Gogh's most famous works with the stunning visual effects of IMAX technology.
Created by Peter Knapp and Francois Bertrand with the cooperation of the Van Gogh Museum, the Musee d'Orsay and the Kroller-Muller Museum, Van Gogh: Brush with Genius traces the artist's remarkable story from his first paintings at the age of 27 to the masterpieces he produced prior to his tragic death ten years later. Based on more than 900 of Van Gogh's letters, the film takes you on an emotional rollercoaster through the life and work of this troubled genius and highlights both his immense joy and pain.
