Coroplast Global | News | 24 Sep 2025 Experiencing Van Gogh: Our Employees visit the Visiodrom

In September, many art-loving employees of the Coroplast Group enjoyed a special evening at the Wuppertal Gasometer. During an exclusive guided tour of the immersive exhibition “Vincent van Gogh – Longing,” they were fully immersed in the artist’s vibrant world – accompanied by music, movement, and monumental images. For the first time, the Coroplast Group also participated as a sponsor of the exhibition.

A Special Art Evening for Our Employees

For the third time, the Coroplast Group invited its employees to an exclusive art tour at the Visiodrom. But this year’s event was extra special: for the first time, we participated as one of the sponsors of this exhibition highlight, sending a strong signal in support of cultural diversity in the region.

Around 100 colleagues – many accompanied by guests –accepted our invitation and took part in the expert-guided tour of the current show, “Vincent van Gogh – Longing.” The event, held in the unique setting of the historic Gasometer, offered not only an immersive art experience but also opportunities for connection, conversation, and mindful reflection.

Longing in Color: The Immersive Van Gogh Experience

Projection of Vincent van Gogh’s Café Terrace at Night at the Visiodrom in the Wuppertal Gasometer — Vincent van Gogh’s “Café Terrace at Night” is brought to life in a stunning large-scale projection at the Visiodrom in the Wuppertal Gasometer. The masterpiece, showing a brightly lit café in Arles under a starry night sky, surrounds visitors with its vibrant yellows and deep blues, creating an immersive and unforgettable experience.

The exhibition “Vincent van Gogh – Longing” lives up to its name: over 100 world-famous works by the Dutch painter – such as Starry Night, Sunflowers, and The Terrace at Arles–come to life through monumental projections. Accompanied by specially composed music and dynamic lighting effects, it creates an intense, multisensory experience.

The immersive show gave our participants an entirely new way to connect with Van Gogh’s art and his biography. Particularly impressive was how colors, movement, and spatial sound seamlessly blend to make the emotional depth of the paintings palpable. Van Gogh’s visions and moods aren’t just displayed – they are truly felt.

It really feels like you’re standing right inside Van Gogh’s world of thoughts – the colors, the music, the scale of the images all have a powerful effect on you.

Wrapping Up with Good Company at the Gasometer

In a relaxed atmosphere, colleagues enjoyed the evening together after the immersive exhibition experience.

Right after the exhibition, many continued the evening at Aposto, the restaurant located within the Gasometer. Over Italian dishes and lively conversations, colleagues relaxed and reflected on the artwork – Van Gogh providing plenty of inspiration for animated discussions.

The art tour of “Van Gogh – Longing” continued a small tradition: in 2023 and 2024, we invited colleagues to exhibitions of other great artists at the Visiodrom – previously “Claude Monet – Rebel and Genius” and “Leonardo da Vinci – uomo universale.” The growing participation each year shows just how much these cultural offerings are appreciated – as shared, informal experiences and meaningful moments beyond work. Supporting regional culture and fostering the connection between work life and creativity is part of the Coroplast Group’s corporate philosophy.
