They took one painting of Rembrandt from 1642 , Guards of the Night and brought to life the characters in it, placed them in a busy mall and the rest you can see for yourself!

Just wonderful! I’ve sent the link on to others with professional interests in art/museums.

I visited the Rijksmuseum years ago and saw Rembrandt’s “Night Watch” there. It was behind glass and roped off so you couldn’t get within 10 feet of it. But the Vermeers and Van Goghs and some of the other Flemish masters were actually more impressive to me.

I always thought that painting was titled “Night Watch”.

Careful what you wish for. A live reenactment of Hieronymus Bosch's
Garden Of Earthly Delights, omitting the first and third panels of the triptych, is far more likely here given the apparent proclivities exhibited by most of the domestic art establishment.
It was pretty cool, though.

We go to the High Museum of Art in Atlanta whenever they add a new collection thanks to Bank of America’s Museums On Us program. Next weekend we will get to see The Girl With The Pearl Earring and other paintings from the Dutch Golden Age.

Guards of the Night, eh?
Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum certainly has the material for some performance art in that area. Reportedly, their $500m real-life heist of 23½ years ago is nearing solution. Real soon now.
The case has become something of a career for Anthony Amore, the Museum's Director of Security since 2005 and a frequent guest on the Howie Carr Show.

Wow- that was terrific. The choreography must’ve been a real challenge, what with unpredictable moving obstacles everywhere. Bet they practiced that about a thousand times when the mall was closed. Kind of a long fall onto a hard surface for the thief though.

If you look at the final scene, it says gratis on the times and dates of opening. In other words, free.
