| - The Van Gogh exhibit is very much worth seeing. Floor to ceiling video display of his works, with some floor panels exhibiting video as well.
Each wall, of which there are many in this maze of an exhibit has video playing. This means that although there are people wandering through, you'll be able to glance left or right and see the video on another wall. Obviously, the more crowded the museum, the more difficult to see, but it only takes about 30 minutes for the video to complete it's cycle. You can stay and see the parts you may have missed as it starts over on a continuous loop.
On exit, you can buy a book and video. I don't recommend the video, it seems to have been shot while the exhibition was open to the public so you have people wandering through the DVD scenes as it's being filmed. It's not so much that they obscure the view, it's just simply too distracting.
If you're a member it's only $8 for the exhibit, slightly more if you're not a member. Go, it's worth it.
It's OK for teens but the younger children we saw there were bored to the point of being somewhat disruptive.
