200 years after its opening and a century after acquiring its first Van Gogh works, the National Gallery hosts the UK’s biggest-ever Van Gogh exhibition. Focusing on his unique creative process, Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers explores the artist’s years in the south of France, where he revolutionised his style.

Dawn of Impressionism - Paris 1874 | Screening from 20 March 2025 (Screening in Dunedin from 21 March 2025)

The Impressionists are the most popular group in art history - millions flock every year to marvel at their masterpieces. But, to begin with, they were scorned, penniless outsiders. 1874 was the year that changed everything; the first Impressionists, “hungry for independence”, broke the mould by holding their own exhibition outside official channels.

Michelangelo: Love and Death (Encore) | Screening from 10 July 2025 (Screening in Dunedin from 11 July 2025)
