Van Gogh and the Colors of the Night - this is the title of the special exhibition that takes place is Museum of Modern Art in NYC. September 21, -January 5, 2009.
Ah! I adore paintings of Vincent van Gogh. This is my favor impressionist. When I had lived in Amsterdam, I used to go to the Museum under his name that is dedicated to his works and arts. It is an amazing place where I could stay for hours and watch the amazing colors, style and talent of van Gogh.
This time I have a chance to see one of the best master pieces of his in New York’s museum. I am so glad that wherever I travel I have a chance to discover van Gogh’s new paintings and re-admire the one I have already seen many times in my life. I just hope, the line ticket for the exhibition won't be too long. I am not the only one who loves the Dutch painter.

A little about painter's life and work:
Throughout his career, Vincent van Gogh (Dutch, 1853–1890) attempted the paradoxical task of representing night by light. His procedure followed the trend set by the Impressionists of "translating" visual light effects with various color combinations. At the same time, this concern was grafted onto Van Gogh's desire to interweave the visual and the metaphorical in order to produce fresh and deeply original works of art. These different artistic concerns found themselves powerfully bound together in Van Gogh's nocturnal and twilight paintings and drawings. This exhibition will present new insight into Van Gogh's depictions of night landscapes, interior scenes, and the effects of both gaslight and natural light on their surroundings. Representing all periods of the artist's career, the exhibition will comprise over two dozen works of superlative quality—several of which have never been seen together, even though they were very clearly conceived with each other in mind. This exhibition will be shown at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, February 13–June 7, 2009. It will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue.
