I've never heard of Matthew before yesterday, as I visited the exhibition at the Van Gogh Museum. I can't explain the impact it had on me. I was surprised to realize that I had a knot in my throat, tears in my eyes and I've left the museum grieving like he was my closest friend. thank you so much for bringing his artwork to Amsterdam in such a beautiful, heartfelt exhibition.

Thank you for introducing me to this beautiful artist. I'm waiting for that day when I get the opportunity to explore his works in an exhibition held in Canada.

There’s a TON of specialness in this, Ive only just discovered Matthew’s work as I researched more on Van Gogh. I love that it was said his work was not a last resort but a first resort. As someone struggling with an anxiety disorder I can relate to how art has helped me. I am only just beginning my own art creative journey but know full well how it helps my brain. My father introduced me to art and Van Gogh as a child & have admired Van Gogh my whole life. Its not until my own struggles began could I appreciate how applicable creativity can be toward mental health. Thank you for sharing Matthews story and allowing this door to open and explore his work 🙏❤️-Anthony

In relevance to the topic, the narrative purely describes the way artists expressionists puts themselves on art, the result is as genuine, and original, the way it is continuosly preserved. Painter Artists Van Gogh is glad, that there are plenty of Artists as gifted as Mr.Wong, his feed is capable of drawing the hues of time, as depicting its hands in its command, as expressionists are inclined to excel. This is a statement that is NON-AI, that does not reverse, for it is Inversely proportionale, appropriate, proper. ******** Make wonders Wong, Soar. Its great to establish, the way narrative establishes themselves, to you, Van gogh, and many.

And what if Vincent did not kill himself? There is evidence that he did not. Or.... if he somehow found the only gun in Auvers during a busy day of painting, he shot himself in the stomach without the intention of ending his life. After all he had never handled a gun before, and this one was broken. There are other ways he could have committed suicide surely if that was his intention. He also did not think this was a fatal injury. When the story of his death has so many questions, I would appreciate if more of the so-called experts and academics would openly discuss this. Vincent is such an idol that you are risking his suicide is glamorized and may lead others to copy their hero.

Van Gogh was about color and technique, same as this Mathew. A lot of patterns too. But each artist dips his brush in his own soul

@raineterno8370 4 ай бұрын

I doubt Van Gogh "suicided" himself, it was most likely an accident. Yet museums continue the false narrative of artists killing themselves off, so they can profit.

Very dramatic sounds, while it was a celebration of life coming out of Wong's hands. Why so sad.

"he wanted his work to have a certain kind of universal value so it should speak to everyone and I think it does speak to everyone." Nope Doesn't speak to me. I do think the emperor has no clothes however.
