VAN GOGH EXHIBITION IN ITALY. BETWEEN WHEAT AND SKY
THE EXHIBITION-EVENT IN VICENZA
The arrival of Van Gogh’s works in Italy will be the greatest event dedicated to the Dutch painter ever organized in Italy.
Never have so many works been exhibited: 40 paintings and 85 drawings to know the life and the works of Van Gogh.
The exhibition entitled “Van Gogh. Between wheat and sky” is curated by Marco Goldin, who last year brought to Treviso the majestic exhibition dedicated to Stories of Impressionism, and now he will retrace the life and artistic career of Van Gogh thanks to his works and the letters the artist sent to his brother Théo, which constitute a personal diary.

And it’s these letters that are the central theme of the exhibition: they will allow you to make a journey into Van Gogh’s mind and follow his own path to peace and longed-for serenity.
But these letters will allow you to fully understand his works and their origin, too.
