Ms Perry praised the city’s “culture and acceptance of art and entertainment and the value that people put in it”.
She said: “It just felt like there was no other place that we could premiere this.
“It has only been seen in North America before.”
Ms Perry said the immersive exhibition “really allows people to tap into elements that they might not have been aware that they were going to be exposed to or feel”.
She added: “They see the artwork around them, they see it on the floor, they hear the sounds, and I think people just get really blown away.”
Because children can run around “and feel like they’ve gone inside paintings” it is a great first art exhibition for youngsters, she said.
Ms Perry said Beyond Van Gogh would also return to Liverpool.
Paris-born Monet, who was born in 1840 and died in 1926, is acknowledged as the founder of the Impressionism movement.
