About

Sheyamali Sudesh leads this reflective session on ‘Van Gogh: Poets and Lovers’. 

As this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition comes to an end, revisit the scenes of poets and lovers from Van Gogh’s time in the south of France. Take a final moment to contemplate the bold colours, marks and poetic imaginations. See how Van Gogh revolutionised his style in this period, with reference to some of his most beloved paintings like ‘Sunflowers’ and ‘The Yellow House’.

Art educator Sheyamali will explore the themes and paintings of this exhibition, offering their insights and perspectives. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions and share your own reflections at this online Members’ talk.
