"Eternal Offerings," a full-sensory immersive exhibition, opens at Mia

A full-sensory, immersive exhibition designed by an Oscar-winning art director is now open at Minneapolis Institute of Art.

• Tim Yip's "Eternal Offerings: Chinese Ritual Bronzes" debuted on Saturday and features 150 bronze objects from the museum's permanent collection.

What to expect: Low lighting, floor-to-ceiling projections onto the walls, soundscapes playing over speakers and a Zen-like atmosphere.

• Other than the first object, the exhibit's curators didn't label any of the items to keep people immersed, instead of them stopping to read.
• A pamphlet is provided with brief descriptions of each room's theme.

My thought bubble: Artifacts aside, I could barely believe this was in the same gallery as the Botticelli exhibit. Mia's complete overhaul of the space made it feel like a different museum.

• Open now through May 21; $20.
