KING OF PRUSSIA, PA — A descendant of Vincent van Gogh will debut unique, "startling" 3D replicas of the famous artist's work in King of Prussia this summer.
The modernized exhibit will include nine of van Gogh's most renown paintings. And in a significant departure from the traditional, aseptic gallery experience, visitors are encouraged to actually touch the paintings and feel the brushstrokes, even van Gogh's fingerprints.
The exhibit will open at the King of Prussia Mall's Lord and Taylor Court on Aug. 16.
