The National Gallery’s special-projects curator, Colin Wiggins, takes the viewer through the history and technique of the iconic tortured artist, whose work, as he so aptly says, “burns off the wall.” Famous for his dynamic strokes, vivid use of color, and perhaps most of all his battle with mental illness, Van Gogh is an artist whose reputation precedes him. From the bright colors of Sunflowers to the darkest moments of depression, Colin laces together the defining moments Van Gogh’s life. —Marie Palmer
