The oversized reproduction of van Gogh’s Sunflowers.

Goodland, Kansas you’ll find the oversized reproduction of van Gogh’s Sunflowers. This 80-foot high reproduction of Vincent van Gogh’s painting 3 Sunflowers in a Vase was erected in 2001 by artist Cameron Cross. After the installation suffered damage from exposure to the weather, Cross returned in 2012 to repaint the piece using a brighter palette.

The giant easel is one part of a series of seven internationally located installations titled the ‘Van Gogh Project.’ The first Big Easel was installed in Altona, Manitoba, Canada in 1998. The Second is the one in Goodland, Kansas. The artist is currently in discussions with other cities and towns around the world for the prospective locations of the other four outdoor installations. The seven sites proposed by Cross are intended to represent a diverse societal cross section, including both rural and urban cities with a wide range of population demographics.
