The Lumiere-Hall Multimedia Museum.

A new exhibition, “Aivazovsky. Living Paintings,” dedicated to the life and work of one of the most renowned marine painters of the 19th century, Ivan Aivazovsky, is taking place at the Lumiere-Hall multimedia museum in Astana.

It is an opportunity to experience the artist’s famous seascapes in a completely new way. Thanks to large-scale projections, music and sound effects, Aivazovsky’s paintings literally come to life on huge screens, creating an immersive experience of the sea.

The exhibition is presented in two halls. In the first part, visitors discover Aivazovsky’s artistic legacy, including his paintings and sketches, learn more about the artist’s life and explore the development of his artistic style.

The second hall offers a multimedia journey: seascapes fill the space, change to the rhythm of music and are accompanied by a narration about the key stages of the artist’s creative career.

The multimedia program lasts approximately one hour.

Throughout his lifetime, Aivazovsky created more than six thousand works and became one of the most recognizable marine painters in the history of art. The exhibition offers visitors a chance to discover both his most famous works and lesser-known stages of his artistic career.
