In Vincents Lichtlab, young and old alike explore perspective and light, just as Van Gogh did in his time. Light is color and color is light, but what is color? What is light? What do we actually see? How does that work, experiencing light? Find out at Vincents Lichtlab.
Free admission for children and youth up to 17 years of age. Children under 12 accompanied by at least 1 paying adult for every 5 children.
Tickets Nuenen
Vincent van Gogh, with a curious attitude, and perseverance, experimented with light and color. As a result, he developed his own style with his recognizable brushstrokes. And he worked with dark colors, yet appearing light. How he did that is a mystery to many. In the Light Lab you can use different light techniques, to see the world, like Vincent.
Vincents Lichtlab is part of the Van Gogh Village Museum in Nuenen. That means you experience the experience on top of your visit to the museum. Access to the Light Lab is therefore automatically included with a ticket to the museum. Want to know more about the Van Gogh Village Museum?
