Our program at the National Gallery of Art will cover Vincent van Gogh’s fascinating life and enduring legacy - including what makes his artwork so unique and why he became so popular after his death. The NGA permanent collection holds ten van Gogh paintings (although some may not be on display at any given time) and thus it’s a great opportunity to see his work up-close and in-person. We will also cover the art that influenced van Gogh, and the artists he in turn influenced.
