Needle and Van Gogh

Written by Constantine Zavras Friday, 20 August 2010 18:38

There are many sources of information on the art of famous artists, but rarely are you able to explore the data in an organized and useful way.  Sources such as The Vincent Van Gogh Gallery have gathered together all the information about Van Gogh in one place, but it is still hard to navigate the works and find interesting visualizations within the website.

For instance you might be interested to see where all of Van Gogh’s works currently reside in North America.
Or view all of Van Gogh’s Self Portraits at once. Or even which collections around the world hold the most Van Gogh's by classification.

To delve into even more complex queries we can take specific mediums such as black charcoal on canvas, and using Needle break them out to their base components in order to show what mediums Van Gogh worked in over the years.

The possibilities are endless, and this is just a start. To see what Needle can do for you, sign up for the preview release.
