Step Inside the Starry Night Painting This Summer in New York

Vincent Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is one of the most famous paintings in the world. Thanks to a new interactive exhibit coming to New York this summer, visitors from all over will be able to step into the painting and experience it like never before.

Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience opens in New York City this June, with a chance to witness "Starry Night," and the Dutch painter's other works, in a whole new way, featuring 360-degree projections, 15 thousand-foot screens, and virtual reality goggles.

Along with seeing the paintings on an enormous scale, the exhibit's virtual reality experience will give visitors the chance to take a ten-minute journey through "a day in the life of the artist." You'll virtually walk alongside Van Gogh and discover the inspiration behind some of his most iconic pieces, including "Vincent's Bedroom at Arles" and "Starry Night Over the Rhone."
