Overview
72 paintings were included in the exhibition, the largest survey of Van Gogh’s art presented outside the Netherlands in more than 25 years. 70 of the paintings were on loan from the Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, during its renovation. Included were such well-known works as Potato Eaters (1885), The Bedroom (1888), Self-Portrait as an Artist (1888), Harvest (1888), and Wheatfield with Crows.
Programs exploring diverse aspects of Van Gogh’s career included lectures, a concert of music by composers who were Van Gogh’s contemporaries, and a series of biographical and documentary films on the artist.
