Abstract

The objective of this work is to presented as a conclusion work in the Specialization in Arts and Technology of Federal University of Pernambuco (UFRPE), aims to discuss the use of Virtual Reality in works of art. In this case around the life and work of Vincent Van Gogh, Impressionist and Post-impressionist artist, who lived between the years of 1853 to 1888 in the city of Groot Zundert, Holland. This is an exploratory research with a qualitative approach. And it is divided into three phases. The first stage was carried out from a bibliographical and audiovisual research about the artist. Among his work we prioritize the piece "The room in Arles" as source of study. Then we brought information about the use and types of 3D modeling software, rendering and post-production processes, and definition and application about virtual reality. And finally, we brought the registration and application of all processes and information to create the three-dimensional environment in 360º, in order to be applied in a virtual environment. As a result, we produced a three-dimensional model of the environment in the 'Room in Arles', and consequently, a 360º image, which combined with the VR BOX glasses, simulates the user‟s sensation of immersion to this environment.
