The VR Museum will stop at La julienne in Plan-les-Ouates for the second time running, on 29 February and 1 March 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The programme will feature a body of four works born out of the endless potential of digital technology, inspired by classical masterpieces. Visitors will literally be able to immerse themselves into Caravaggio\u2019s dark Rome, see a greenhouse in the Jardin des Plantes transform into a painting by Le Douanier Rousseau and contemplate waterlilies at Monet\u2019s side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will also include The Little VR Museum, featuring two virtual works dedicated to younger audiences aged 8 upwards, in La julienne\u2019s library. Young and old alike will be thrust into the room of a ballerina reliving her memories of youth in Feather<\/em>, or will get to help an astronaut live his childhood dreams in Wings<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CARAVAGGIO IN TENEBRIS<\/h3>\n\n

Matthieu Van Eeckhout \/ 8 min \/ 2019 \/ France \/ animation \/ no dialogue<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Caravaggio, the most fascinating, disputed and turbulent Renaissance painter. Rather than addressing his work in a scholarly way, the authors of this immersive tribute have chosen to create a whirlwind of crazy, Caravaggio-like images in which to plunge and loose oneself.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

CLAUDE MONET \u2013 THE WATERLILIES OBSESSION<\/h3>\n\n

Nicolas Th\u00e9pot \/ 8 min \/ 2019 \/ France \/ animation \/ French<\/p>\n\n

Claude Monet painted close to 250 works featuring waterlilies from his pond in Giverny, including the eight panels at L\u2019Orangerie in Paris. Through this virtual fantasy, the great impressionist\u2019s floral work comes to life and reveals itself from the inside. Poetic and fascinating.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

LES R\u00caVES DU DOUANIER ROUSSEAU<\/h3>\n\n

Nicolas Autheman \/ 7 min \/ 2019 \/ France \/ animation \/ French<\/p>\n\n

Late afternoon at the Jardin des Plantes. What if we were suddenly trapped in the large greenhouse? What if creatures and plants born out of paintings by Le Douanier Rousseau started emerging around us? A virtual stroll in the form of a daydream.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

THE SUN BY EDVARD MUNCH<\/h3>\n\n

Harmke Heezen, Mike Robbins \/ 11 min \/ 2019 \/ Germany, Norway \/ experimental \/ French<\/p>\n\n

The sun rises on a fjord. The sun\u2019s rays are increasingly intense. The landscape turns into a visual experience, making us wonder what remains of an image when it fades away. After The Scream<\/em>, another work by Munch is brilliantly transposed into VR.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

FEATHER<\/h3>\n\n

Keisuke Itoh \/ 10 min \/ 2019 \/ Japan \/ animation \/ no dialogue<\/p>\n\n

Feather<\/em> is a moving animated tale which young viewers go beyond simply watching. They participate, interacting with a small doll via a feather. Like a magic wand, the feather, a symbol of encouragement, will help the doll overcome difficulties and achieve its dream, that of becoming a prima ballerina.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

What young boy has never dreamt of becoming an astronaut? This project enables us to achieve this dream thanks to virtual reality. Wings<\/em> tells the story of Nelu, an astronaut who lives trapped in his spaceship.
