Did you happen to see the Vincent van Gogh hot air balloon Saturday, October 30? It was launched from Boom Island to celebrate the extension of the Immersive Van Gogh Minneapolis exhibit (now running to February 2022).
The Van Gogh hot air balloon is a reproduction of Van Gogh’s 1887 painting Self Portrait with Grey Felt Hat. The balloon was created by a European specialty hot air balloon company with brush strokes depicting a precise copy of the artist’s iconic piece. It has been launched in numerous cities.
You can view 100's of photos from the event here. They are spectacular!
