Exhibition ‘Choosing Vincent’
-
Ausstellung10.02.2023 - 10.04.2023
The anniversary year of 2023 kicks off with a tribute to the Van Gogh family. Without the unconditional support that they offered Vincent, the museum simply would not have existed.
How did Vincent van Gogh become a world-famous artist? To this day, his family plays an important role in this.
The exhibition Choosing Vincent. Portrait of a Family History tells a personal story of doubt, setbacks, pride, and triumph. A story punctuated with dilemmas, seen through the eyes of Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), his brother Theo (1857-1891), Theo's wife Jo (1862-1925) and their son Vincent (1890-1978), named after his uncle.
In the multisensory exhibition, you will get to know Vincent and his extraordinary family by looking, listening and doing. The many masterpieces and lesser-known gems show how the family collection grew to become a world-famous collection. Multimedia Guide

Simply order your multimedia tour for € 3.50 together with your online ticket.
Catalogue
The exhibition will be accompanied by the book Choosing Vincent. From family collection to Van Gogh Museum. The publication explains how the collection of many masterpieces stayed together after Vincent's death and how it could be housed in its own museum 50 years ago. The catalogue features many unknown historical photos of the Van Gogh family and photographs from the museum's early days.
The catalogue is available at the museum shop and online webstore, in English and Dutch from 10 February 2023.
