On Wednesday, August 20, Art-full members are invited on a one-of-a-kind, time-traveling journey into the heart of Paris, 1874.
Through the magic of immersive VR, we’ll step into a candlelit studio on the Right Bank, where Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, and their daring contemporaries dared to go against the establishment and present their work on their own terms. This was more than an art show — it was a rebellion in brushstrokes, the birth of a movement that challenged centuries of tradition and gave rise to Impressionism as we know it today.
Tonight with the Impressionists: Paris 1874 is an award-winning virtual reality experience at Eclipso NYC that reconstructs the energy, uncertainty, and radical creativity of that historic night. You'll walk the same cobblestone streets, enter Nadar’s iconic studio, and see the world through the eyes of artists who refused to wait for permission — artists who reimagined what art could look like, feel like, and mean.
This isn’t just an exhibition — it’s a full-sensory time capsule, where the past meets the present in vivid 3D detail.
💡 Why you won’t want to miss it:
Witness a pivotal night in art history — as if you were really there
Meet Monet, Renoir, and their contemporaries as young artists on the rise
Discover how a single exhibition changed the art world forever
Following the immersive experience, we’ll take advantage of NY restaurant week with a three-course French feast at Nougatine by Jean-George.
