With the immersive exhibition “Claude Monet – Master of Colors and Lights,” , the Kunstkraftwerk explores the two main elements of Impressionism: color and light. After a brief overview of the artist and his life presented on four large monitors in the foyer, The FAKE Factory in the machine hall welcomes visitors with the main immersive multimedia show.

It is the first step in a journey that leads from the main hall through the boiler room and—for the first time—through the building’s entire basement complex, all the way back to the shop and café. Over the course of 90 minutes, the audience will encounter many surprises along the way. Combined with a brief introduction to the works, multimedia artist The FAKE Factory transforms more than 300 of Monet’s paintings and sketches into 15 to 17 scenes in the Main Show.

In 35 minutes, visitors will gain a whole new and intimate perspective on Monet’s most important works, his en plein air painting, his interplay of light and color, and key locations in his life—Paris, the boulevard, the theater, Rouen Cathedral, and the garden at Giverny.

The impressions, works, and scenes are accompanied by sound from contemporary music genres.
