Rio de Janeiro, 18 Mar Rio de Janeiro will host a show starting this Saturday in which 285 works by the French painter Claude Monet will be screened and which is considered to be the greatest sensory and immersive experience ever made in the world about one of the most emblematic artists of impressionism. The exhibition “Monet a beira d'agua” (Monet at the water's edge), organized by the Brazilian startup Mira (Museum of Immersive Roaming Arts) and the Rio Art Museum (MAR), will be available until June 12 in a 15-metre-high shop set up on the Olympic Boulevard, in the port area of this Brazilian city. In the 2,000-square-meter space, it will be possible, with the help of 40 special projectors and through a 65-minute journey, to follow an animated narrative about the work of the French master (1840-1926), immersed at the same time in fragments and panoramas of 285 of his works. The original and unreleased multimedia show, which mixes lights, art, colors, music and shapes projected on the floor and walls of the store, will later be taken to other Brazilian cities, starting in Sao Paulo, and other countries, including Los Angeles. The 360-degree projections on backgrounds up to seven meters high, accompanied by an original soundtrack, will allow the viewer to have the feeling of being inside Monet's own works, according to its organizers. The impressionist artist's paintings will be projected in sequences of digital animations in two and three dimensions, distributed in eight audiovisual narratives, each on important aspects of Monet's work. “The show represents Monet's imaginary journey through landscapes that he recreated on the banks of rivers, seas and lakes,” explains the exhibition's executive director, Leo Rea Lé, one of the creators of MIRA. The exhibition will be extended to the headquarters of the Rio Art Museum, also located in the port area of Rio de Janeiro, with a montage of the artist's life timeline and an exhibition of works from the institution's collection related to the French artist and impressionism. Monet's works selected for the screenings include the series of Saint-Lazare Station (1877), Rouen Cathedral (1893), Lake Nymphs (1895-1926), Westminster Palace (1904) and Venice Grand Canal (1908).
