Dear Members and Guests,

Please join us for our GAC1948 event in February: A visit to the immersive art experience

Monet’s Garden – The immersive Experience

The immersive art experience “Monet‘s Garden” is a fantastic 360-degree journey through the history and works of one of the greatest artists of the past century. The unique exhibition concept is staged with state-of-the-art multimedia technology, which allows visitors to immerse themselves completely in the world and famous artworks of the impressionist painter Claude Monet (1840-1926). Elaborate installations and projections, combined with music, create rushing worlds of color and make the paintings come alive and tangible in a way never seen before. For the viewer, illusions transform into reality. (Text from: https://www.monets-garden.com )
