Van Gogh @ The Philadelphia Museum of Art

Got up to Philadelphia with a friend last Saturday to see the new exhibit: Van Gogh Up Close which explores the artist's relationship with the natural world and object from the natural world. With Van Gogh, the subject matter is almost immaterial--it the art, the power of each image, each brush stroke that thrills. So far, the more I am around his paintings, the more I crave to be around them. And this show is an oasis for lovers of this prolific and tragic genius.
