Adam Soko owski Review of Vincent van Gogh
I was undecided between 4 and 5 stars.
I was undecided between 4 and 5 stars.
Collection is modest, but even for that it's worth to visit the museum.
Somehow, the fact of standing in front of Van Gogh's paintings was for me... moving.
Museum itself is another story. "Gallery" would be a better name.
I believe, that knowing Vincent's biography is essential to experience the exhibition. I'm quite familiar with it, so I did'n have to try to push through a massive amount of people to read what is written of the walls in dimmed/dark rooms, even though I understand why they did it.
What else - Van Gogh and Japan part is somehow hidden or not exposed to say the least, thus only a handful of people visiting. I found my favorite painting - "Vincent's bedroom" - there, but there was no information about that in the main exhibition where the painting used to hang.
Audio guide - it's just "NO". Both modes - leisure and fast - require a lot of interactions, thus guide is another distraction.
