Houston Exhibition Offers Rare Chance to See Van Gogh Masterworks in Person The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is open almost 365 days a year, so everyone is welcome to visit. I wouldn't call viewing a Van Gogh a "rare chance."

It’s the volume of paintings that is rare. You’ll be inundated in Van Gogh’s world. Goes to the end of June.

Don’t fly. And I am from Chicago, so saw the ones there and a Tiffany exhibition and a Monet Exhibition. But I can imagine training to Houston or driving.

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is open almost 365 days a year Not when I was there! (It was closed for renovations.) Some paintings were moved to the Rijksmuseum, but not that many as I recall. I saw most of them when they were on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Believe it or not...
Bringing Vincent van Goghs ear back to life
11 Nov 2014
US based artist Diemut Strebe grew a replica copy of painter Vincent van Goghs ear earlier this year.
Living cells were taken from one of Van Goghs relatives and shaped using a 3D printer to resemble the ear the artist is said to have cut off in 1888.
The ear, which was placed in a nutrient rich solution to keep it alive, formed part of an art exhibition at a German museum.
BBC Clicks Spencer Kelly went behind the scenes to find out more.

I went to the Art Institute museum in Chicago. I was blown away by the number of famous works. It was like opening an art history textbook!

I was an art history major at U of Chicago after I dropped out of physics in my senior year. We had some of our classes in the museum and it always overwhelmed me. Mother was a fine arts major at U of C and I was raised in the Art Institute in front of the Lorado Taft statues, then got to take classes in his studio, where mother had studied.
