"Sunflower","Self-Portrait","The Starry Night", Van Gogh...these familiar names, imminent pictures, and straightforward expression, intuitively convey the inner strength and cry of the painter to the audience.

So, what if these audiences are special children? How do they guide and express their perception of these beauty and appeal?

Today, the immersive light and shadow exhibition "Van Gogh Alive" on display at the World Expo Museum welcomes such a special group of audiences—children from Luwan Auxiliary Experimental School affiliated to East China Normal University.

Under the careful planning of the teacher, under the careful arrangement of the CPIC Blue Charity Foundation, and with the assistance of the exhibition organizer DoPlanet and the World Expo Museum, the children appreciated many works of Van Gogh up close through the multi-sensory immersive experience of digital light and shadow, symphony and artistic fragrance. Accompanied by the life trajectory of the artist, they realized the beauty and joy of nature and daily life, and also felt the concern and love of volunteers and others.

At the end of the visit, deputy curator of the World Expo Museum Yu Zhenyu and representative of the exhibitor Mr. Fang Yunfeng presented the World Expo children's books "Exploring the World Expo" series of books,"Van Gogh Reappearance" exhibition album and customized sunflower bears to the school, hoping to help children learn more deeply, explore the world and discover more beauty.
