    Looks pretty seizure-inducing...

    What city are you in?

    From that website, looks like only SF/Toronto have opened. NYC/LA have dates posted (and Chicago has a venue/no dates), but the rest of the cities have no location or timeframe, which seems to mean they haven't secured a location, yet.

    If you are in Houston, there's an actual Van Gogh exhibit at the MFA right now, too.

    In the meantime, can let the family enjoy this work of art.

    I hear the one being promoted on social media in Houston is a scam.

    It's basiclly an empty warehouse and you wear a VR headset.

    Looks kinda cool. Would be interested in checking it out. Reminds me of the TeamLab Borderless digital art exhibit in Japan.

    Is this one just projections in a big warehouse? What I liked about the exhibit in Japan is that there were actual physical lights, installations, and sculpted pieces for visitors to interact with.

    Awesome that you got to see that! I missed it while I was in Japan. But I did go to Naoshima so I'm not beating myself up about it.

    Yeah I loved it! I'm a sucker for immersive and tactile art exhibits, so I had to go lol. I was a little unsure at first, cause I saw so many visitors lined up and I hate crowds/being rushed through exhibits, but they get people in pretty quick, and once you're inside its a smooth and enjoyable experience.

    Didn't get to go to as many galleries and museums as I wanted since it was my first time in Japan, but I'm definitely checking out Naoshima next time I visit.
