Overview

When was the last time you took a close look at a painting? We're not talking about taking it in, hypothesising about what it means, then moving on. We mean really stopping, looking, and letting yourself move through the painting. Sound impossible? Not when you watch VAN GOGH, MONET & DEGAS 3D: LASTING IMPRESSIONS, exclusive to IMAX Melbourne, from Thursday, November 28.

This isn't your regular theatric blockbuster; rather, it's an immersive transformation of some of the world's most famous paintings into a cutting-edge art and music experience. It brings the likes of Van Gogh's starry nightscape, Monet's water lilies, Degas' ballerinas and more to moving life in a brand new way. Instead of being shown as typical depictions of paintings, they're expanded upon with 3D Motion Sculpting Technology, technology usually reserved for making immersive video games.

You'll feel as if you're soaring, floating and dancing through the paintings, seeing the details come alive with motion that the canvas could never recreate. The soundtrack is just as classic, with works from classical maestros like Debussy and Ravel synced to the motion of the art on-screen. It's a feast for the eyes and ears that you won't find anywhere else. If only the artists could see.

VAN GOGH, MONET & DEGAS 3D: LASTING IMPRESSIONS will be screened at IMAX Melbourne on Thursday, November 28. Visit the website for more information or to get tickets.
