Monet, who was born in France in 1840, is known as a leading figure in impressionism, an artistic movement known for artists capturing an impression of the world through their own point of view and perspective.
"Beyond Monet" uses modern technology to project the artist's works onto walls, surrounding visitors as they walk into the exhibition. Music, lighting and movement help breathe new life into the works.
Prior to entering the main room, visitors will go through an entry space where they can learn about Monet's life.
