반 고흐 미디어 아트 전시의 감각파장과 그 효과: 예술가가 형성하는 헤테로토피아를 중심으로

The Van Gogh media art exhibition, utilizing diverse and complex media, profoundly transforms our ways of existence and introduces new visual-perceptual changes through multisensory experiences. The Van Gogh media art exhibition allows visitors to accompany Van Gogh’s life and experiences and to journey through an aesthetic atmosphere. At this moment, we can travel as pilgrims through the significant locations of Van Gogh’s life and works-such as Paris, Arles, and Auvers-sur-Oise in France-which served as crucial turning points in his artistic journey. The dynamism of these media immerses us in a comforting space where analog and digital sensibilities coexist, creating a soothing “massage effect”. In a reality dominated by extravagant exhibition culture and the excessive influence of smartphones, we can focus on Van Gogh’s unique life story-a history of anquish and suffering dedicated entirely to his art. At this point, Van Gogh’s thought, which breaks the framework of cognition, awakens the viewer’s sealed senses. Above all, Van Gogh’s innovative experiments boldly confront the harsh reality of social neglect, exclusion, and the blind spots of perception, initiating a revolution in sensitivity that opens up a transformative shift towards a new world of perception, seen from a fresh perspective. The empathy in the Van Gogh exhibition breaks through the walls of individual narcissism in a fragmented society, allowing a new form of collective empathy to be born and take root. Even today, as a painter, artist, revolutionary innovator, and pilgrim, Van Gogh continues to expand and imprint the great wavelengths of innovation and their effects, constantly shifting the paradigms of society as a whole.
