TORONTO, April 1, 2021 /CNW/ – Beyond Monet: The Immersive Experience makes its world premiere in Toronto at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre this summer, for a limited engagement. This innovative, cinematic and all new production was created by the minds of Normal Studio and produced by Beyond Exhibitions Inc.

Beyond Monet is a three-part multi-sensory experience inspired by the intoxicating freedom and the rejection of conventions that run through Monet’s body of work. It is anchored in the unbridled pursuit of light from the leading figure of Impressionism and opens all the poetic, playful and dreamlike potential of his work.

People of all ages can be part of every brushstroke as Monet’s artwork comes to life in front of their very eyes. Guests can become one with the paintings as projections of Monet’s pieces swirl around, transforming the space into an ethereal representation of his life’s work. His artwork expands beyond the framed canvases through music, sound effects and scenography that will awaken the senses and create a captivating atmosphere. Beyond Monet promises to break conventions with this spectacular audio-visual journey through impressionism. In Monet’s vision lies an incandescent world without a shore, a world of fleeting and effervescent reflections. Beyond our gaze is Monet.

“We are honoured to host the premiere of this immersive experience, Beyond Monet,” said Lorenz Hassenstein, President and CEO, Metro Toronto Convention Centre. “Continuing to support and celebrate arts and culture is important, especially during challenging times. With health and safety as our top priority, we look forward to welcoming guests to enjoy an incredible and safe experience.”

The exhibit’s space within the Metro Toronto Convention Centre boasts over 50,000 square feet to allow visitors enough space to social distance with ease. The art event will also run on a timed ticketed-entry system, in order to ensure visitors’ health and safety and limited-capacity. A curated selection of merchandise will also be available upon exiting the exhibit space for those who wish to have a memento.

“This exhibition is beyond anything you’ve seen. It is a truly multi-sensory immersive experience that offers guests a dreamlike romantic journey through Monet’s world of masterpieces,” says Jeffrey Latimer, Producing Partner, JL Entertainment. “Sharing this unique spectacle with Canadians for its world premiere is quite an honour for us.”
