Vang Gogh is back in Rome. Yes, finally he comes back with his artworks to the Eternal City. The Exhibition will be hosted at the Vittoriano Museum Complex and will be called “Vincent Van Gogh: timeless countryside and modern city”.

Cornelia Homburg, the exhibition curator, one of the most important specialist in the Duch painter artworks studies, choose to present to her visitors the dichotomous face of Van Gogh: from one side she wants to present his love for the eternal and unchangeable character of the countryside; on the other side she wants to show the influence of the urban life with its rapid traffic on the artist experience. This is the Homburg way of presenting to the visitor a all-accomplished view of Van Gogh’s artworks avoiding pedantry.

The Vittoriano Museum will host, for this occasion, 110 artworks in which the visitors will find oil paintings, watercolor paintings and some sketches: these supports will describe all the contradiction and the conflicting trends of a complex personality.

The Van Gogh exhibition has been set up with the contribution of the most important exhibition centers of the world and the Homburg’s work has been supported by an excellent scientific committee.

Don’t miss the Van Gogh return to Rome: the exhibition will take place in the wonderful Vittoriano’s panorama in the vicinity of the Peace Altar.
