The work of one of the world's most celebrated and influential visual artists enters an exciting, immersive dimension in Phipps' breathtaking new show, Van Gogh in Bloom. Inspired by painter Vincent van Gogh — whose dramatic landscapes and still-life paintings defined an artistic era and forged a new visual language to connect with the natural world — Phipps’ horticulture team has masterfully transformed the historic glasshouse with breathtaking reimaginings of the post-impressionist's acclaimed works, including “Starry Night,” “Sunflowers” and “Wheat Field with Cypresses.”
Vivid botanical vignettes place you directly into each stunning scene as Van Gogh first captured it, surrounded by colorful blooms, trees, grasses and summertime splendor. Awe-inspiring by daylight, as well as Friday nights when architectural lighting reveals a unique interplay of light and shadow, Van Gogh in Bloom is a spectacular, moving combination of art and nature. Don’t miss this one-of-a-kind experience that only Phipps can provide!
