Van Gogh's flowers come alive at the New York Botanical Garden

WNYC News | May 24, 2025

What if Van Gogh's paintings came to life and you could walk through them into a world of flowers and sculpture? That's the fanciful idea behind "Van Gogh's Flowers," a new exhibit opening Saturday, May 24, at the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx. The interactive exhibit pays tribute to the Dutch painter with botanical displays and large-scale art. 

WNYC's Hannah Frishberg had a sneak peek ahead of the show's official opening. She joins Weekend Edition host David Furst for a preview.
