Van Gogh – Brush With Genius<br />
DATE: 1 June – 31 October <strong>2009</strong><br />
VENUE: Omni Theatre, 21 Jurong Town Hall Road<br />
SYNOPSIS<br />
Dive into the heart <strong>of</strong> Van Gogh’s paintings. For the first time, discover in IMAX the fantastic colors<br />
and passionate brushwork <strong>of</strong> a great genius as they take on a new life before our eyes. Relive<br />
Vincent’s life journey through his letters, see the places that inspired him, and the paintings.<br />
We will meet Vincent. During this journey he will join us, reacting to the pictures, telling us<br />
what his is opinion today. He will be looking at Peter Knapp, a man who is working today on a<br />
documentary about Van Gogh’s techniques, and at Ellen, a researcher in the Van Gogh Museum<br />
in Amsterdam. She is studying his notebooks and letters. They give evidence <strong>of</strong> the fire and<br />
passion <strong>of</strong> a man who painted as he loved, who loved as he painted. And Vincent, as if he were<br />
seated next to us, will tell us the truth about his works and life. This is a chance to discover a<br />
Van Gogh we’ve never seen before: serene and radiating with love <strong>of</strong> life.<br />
