FUKUOKA.- The exhibition Van Gogh: The adventure of becoming an artist will opens in Japan, featuring masterworks from the Van Gogh Museum and Kröller-Müller Museum collections. The exhibition includes such highlights as The bedroom and The sower (Van Gogh Museum), and The Ravine and Portrait of Joseph-Michel Ginoux (Kröller-Müller Museum). The exhibition gives an impression of the methods and techniques Van Gogh used in developing his style and technique, and of the artists who influenced him in this development. Paintings by some other famous artists are therefore also on display. Though these works were not all seen by Van Gogh, they give an impression of the working methods that were prevalent at the time.
