Travel in space and time without even leaving the Paris region, sounds tempting, right? For that, head to Meudon, specifically to Hangar Y. This place with a fascinating history – in 1884, the building hosted the world's first closed-circuit airship flight – becomes the stage for an extraordinary experience that takes you in the footsteps of three of the greatest artists of the 19th and 20th centuries: Claude Monet, Vincent Van Gogh, and Antoni Gaudí.

The Obsession with Water Lilies
This unique virtual odyssey begins beside the leading figure of Impressionism, Claude Monet. In the freshness of his studio in Giverny, we gaze at the surrounding world through his eyes, diving into the changing waters of the Water Lilies, before encountering the painter in deep conversation with his friend Georges Clemenceau. It's a true meander through the seasons, a poetic exploration of the artist’s work, from his love for color to his passion for nature.

Monsieur Vincent
A little while later, we find ourselves transported to Auvers-sur-Oise, in the office of Dr. Gachet, the doctor of Vincent Van Gogh, immortalized several times by the painter. Here, the brush strokes dance to draw us into a whirlwind of colors. Guided by the voice of the doctor’s daughter, Marguerite, we explore the artist’s palette through a truly unique virtual journey. The maze of paintings slowly transforms into a window open on the richness of the thick brushwork and the power of the artist's impasto.

The Workshop of the Divine
Last stop on this journey through the history of art: the workshop of the Spanish master Antoni Gaudí. A grand conclusion that brings us close to the intimacy of the Catalan, whose creative space is here reproduced for the first time, as close as possible to the historical reality. We become the disciples of the architect, who shares all the secrets of his genius, his revolutionary methods, and his universe filled with diverse and abundant inspirations, as we stroll through the heart of his greatest achievement: the Sagrada Familia. An extraordinary journey through the life and work of three exceptional artists.
