Oklahoma City, Okla. – Lighthouse Immersive today announced the 22nd North American city to experience the immersive sensation seen by over 5 million across North America. Immersive Van Gogh will open at the Oklahoma City Convention Center Dec. 14, 2022. Oklahoma City’s iteration of the blockbuster experiential art exhibit will be housed in an 11,000-sq-ft exhibit hall at the newly minted Oklahoma City Convention Center (100 Mick Cornett Dr.) for a limited engagement. Opened in January 2021, this state-of-the-art facility’s modern aesthetic will soon accommodate the animated artwork of Vincent van Gogh, evoking his highly emotional and chaotic inner consciousness through art, light, music, movement and imagination. Tickets are on sale now at vangoghoklahoma.com for showings from Dec. 14, 2022 through Jan 15, 2023.
“We cannot wait to share the immersive art show that is sweeping the nation with the people of Oklahoma City,” said Corey Ross, producer of Immersive Van Gogh. “We opened five successful Immersive Van Gogh exhibits in the bordering states of Texas, Missouri and Colorado, so Oklahoma City was the next logical choice.”
Immersive Van Gogh invites audiences to “step inside” the iconic works of post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh. The Italian creative team have custom designed their vision to fit the unique architecture of each Immersive Van Gogh venue. The experience was designed by creative director and master of immersive art Massimiliano Siccardi, with original, mood-setting music by Italian multimedia composer Luca Longobardi, who provided a score that combines experimental electronic music with pure, ethereal piano. Vittorio Guidotti is the art director. With more than 50 projectors casting 500,000+ square feet of imagery, visitors to Immersive Van Gogh will be encircled from head-to-toe in Van Gogh’s brushstrokes and colors, including animated details from works such as Self Portrait with Felt Hat (1888), The Bedroom in Arles (1889), Irises (1889) and The Starry Night (1889).
Ticket prices start at $39.99 ($24.99 for children 16 or younger), with timed and flexible ticket options available. Visit immersivevangogh.com to learn more.
