The Peninsula Chicago
The Peninsula Chicago is teaming with the Art Institute of Chicago to give guests a peek into the room that inspired legendary artist Vincent Van Gogh.
A special Keys to the City experience enables guests to take a private tour of the exhibit Van Gogh’s Bedrooms, the centerpiece of which are the three paintings he made of his bedroom in Aries, as well as a physical replica of the chamber. This exhibit offers an intimate view of where the artist created bodies of work, and allowing guests to view the exhibit in groups of 10 or less will help remove possibility of intrusion as they explore his source of inspiration.

Van Gogh’s Bedrooms will be open from Feb. 14 through May 8. Mr. Van Gogh considered the painting of his abode to be his best work, spurring him to create three versions of the same scene.
This exhibit marks the first time that all three of the artworks will be on view together in North America, enabling attendees to explore the similarities and differences between what at first appear identical works at different scales. These paintings are presented with supporting documentary, physical and scientific evidence delving into each version.
Van Gogh’s Bedroom
A reconstruction of the room with digital enhancements allows viewers to in effect step inside Mr. Van Gogh’s paintings and his world.
About 36 letters, paintings and drawings round out the exhibit and explore the artist’s use of home iconography throughout his career. Visitors will move from his Yellow House, in which he painted landscapes through his bedroom window, to his final home in Auvers-sur-Oise, where he created pictures of cottages.
Peninsula’s package is priced at $1,500, not including accommodations. Those who book receive a special welcome amenity, access to the exhibit for up to 10 guests before or after museum hours and transportation to and from the exhibit.
