After the success of the “Recharger” and “L’Épopée du Hangar Y” experiences, Hangar Y announces a new program for the coming months that includes exceptional workshops. These three virtual reality journeys around Monet, Van Gogh and Gaudí can be discovered from November 1, 2024 to February 16, 2025.
At Hangar Y, visitors take an immersive virtual reality journey through the works of three great masters: Monet, Van Gogh, and Goudy. With a headset, you'll have the opportunity to discover these three key figures of the 19th and 20th centuries in a different way, while plunging straight into the heart of their creative process.

Claude Monet – obsession with water lilies
Virtual reality experience by Nicolas Thibaut. (Co-production of Lucid Realities, ARTE France, Camera lucida productions, Musées d'Orsay and de l'Orangerie, Gebrueder Beetz Filmproduktion / Distribution: unframed set)
Through a dialogue between the painter and his great friend, the statesman Georges Clemenceau, the virtual reality experience takes the viewer on a journey through the seasons in the heart of the Garden of Giverny and its famous water lilies. This poetic exploration of Monet's works turns the artist's studio into a whirlwind of color.
Mr. Vincent
Virtual reality experience by Agnès Molia and Gordon. (Co-production with Lucid Realities, TSVP, Le musée d'Orsay and VIVE Arts / Distribution: Unframed set).
In Dr. Gachet's house in Auvers-sur-Oise, the viewer is guided by the voice of his daughter Marguerite, one of the last women whom Van Gogh painted. The experience explores Van Gogh's masterpieces from the perspective of colour, through a virtual journey through the painter's palette, leading to a better understanding of the artist's impasto technique.
