JLL completes lease for Immersive Van Gogh at Pier 36

NEW YORK, May 13, 2021 — JLL has completed a 70,000-square-foot lease at Pier 36 in New York City on behalf of Lighthouse Immersive Inc. to accommodate a powerful, fully immersive digital Van Gogh experience during the summer of 2021. The tenant signed a short-term lease with property owner Pier 36/Basketball City.

“This is an extraordinarily powerful exhibit that will instantly become a top destination for all New Yorkers and visitors to the city. The dynamism of the exhibit, which is ideally located at Pier 36 on the Lower East Side, is a perfect complement to the energy that will define New York City as it emerges from the pandemic.” Gerace said.

Lighthouse Immersive was represented by JLL’s Charles Gerace, Vice President, and Alexander Riguardi.

“Immersive Van Gogh has been hailed as an entirely new way of encountering art and has been enthusiastically embraced by press and patrons in every city in which it currently is being presented,” said Producer Corey Ross. “Our New York exhibition will be by far our most ambitious. Not only do we have the talents of our ingenious Italian creative team, but we also have David Korins bringing his distinct creative vision to the project to provide an unsurpassed guest experience.”

Immersive Van Gogh invites audiences to “step inside” the iconic works of post-Impressionist artist Vincent van Gogh, evoking his highly emotional and chaotic inner consciousness through art, light, music, movement and imagination. The gallery space offers patrons more than 500,000 cubic feet of animated projections. Renowned Creative Director Korins will create a custom design to fit the architecture of the exhibition’s New York home, adding elements to the gallery space as well as adjacent auxiliary elements. Korins will create numerous New York-specific installations, viewing platforms and high-tech, experiential and interactive elements previously unseen in any other venue.
