"The Immersive Van Gogh" is at SVN San Francisco in the former Fillmore West building. The exhibit showcases Vincent Van Gogh’s work through 300,000 square foot projections. The giant images are animated and vibrant in color. They pull visitors into the emotional energy the artist put into his paintings.
