What this new installation is, is the latest in ICOSA's series of curated front-window dressings at their Canopy-based gallery, where you can see (24/7) what the current artist (Lemanski, in this case, yes) has done with the space.Through Aug. 9

Beyond Van Gogh
This traveling spectacle of art, a multimedia exhibition currently ensconced at the COTA, uses cutting-edge projection technology to create an engaging journey into the world of Vincent Van Gogh. Repurposing the artist's dreams, his thoughts, and his words to drive the experience as a narrative, this huge installation will move you along projection-swathed walls wrapped in light, colour, and shapes that swirl, dance and refocus into flowers, cafes and landscapes. As a certain Dude might comment, "This is extremely fuckin' trippy, man." Make your reservations now, citizen, and if the price seems a bit steep, hell, you can probably tap your brother Theo for a loaner, amirite?Through Sept. 5. Daily, 11am-9pm. $37 ($24, children). -
