“Vincent van Gogh: The Starry Night by Truman Cheng” has been announced by the LEGO Review Board as the approved LEGO ideas project. Cheng’s Starry Night LEGO has won against 34 other projects.

Truman Cheng or Legotruman (his name on LEGO ideas account) created this design as a tribute to Vincent Van Gogh, a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter. His LEGO design depicts the famous scenery of Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night”. The swirling cloud, sun, moon, eleven stars, hillsides, bushes, cypress tree, and some buildings were built in 3D bricks scene. It is so amazing to imagine how the artist makes all of these elements from LEGO bricks. Truman did not forget to implement Van Gogh’s iconic brush strokes and color in his work.

This LEGO set also includes a Vincent Van Gogh character, paintbrush, painting palette, easel, and “The Starry Night” mini-painting. Looking at this set is like seeing Van Gogh is painting in real nature.

 

Currently, the LEGO team is “still working out the final product design, pricing, and availability” for this set. 

 

LEGO’s fans have been waiting to bring Cheng’s “Starry Night” to the comfort of their home!

 

LEGO Art

LEGO is known as children’s toys around the world that allow them to make an experiment, improve their motor skills, and develop their imaginations. Someone may wonder “can LEGO become an inspiring contemporary artwork?” 

 

Try to have a look at Nathan Sawaya’s artworks made from LEGO bricks. Nathan Sawaya is well-known for his idea to take LEGO bricks as contemporary artwork. He has exhibited LEGO Art worldwide such as at the ArtScience Museum in Singapore, the Discovery Times Square in New York, and the California Science Center in Los Angeles.

Sawaya’s works range from LEGO bricks Rembrandt’s painting reproduction,  Modigliani’s sculpture to his sculpture.

For Sawaya, these works reflect his growth as an artist and the struggle to discover his creative identity. Sawaya aims “to elevate the simple plaything to a place it has never been before.”

 

LEGO art is a perfect example of how contemporary art has changed the focus of art from the beauty, technique, and medium, to the personal experience of the viewer when enjoyed artworks.
