The pop-up exhibition in the Ostrava offices of Veolia Energie continues – running from March to December 2025. In the second run of the exhibition, we have presented a total of 12 works by artists of the younger and middle generations, such as Markéta Heřmanová, Patrik Kriššák, Katarína Szanyi, and Jan Pražan.
Artworks displayed in the common areas of the offices are not merely an aesthetic enrichment of the modern working environment, but represent Veolia’s deeper commitment to employee care, the development of (corporate) culture, and social responsibility.
Thanks to the Artist's Hero platform, Veolia Energie ČR brings contemporary art closer to its colleagues with the aim of creating a work environment that inspires with new themes and perspectives on the world, cultivates aesthetic sensibility, and enhances mental well-being. By renting artworks, Veolia simultaneously helps artists reach a broader domestic audience, convey their perspective on important shared themes, and financially support the domestic art scene.
Veolia places great emphasis on caring for both people and the planet. As a leader in ecological transformation, Veolia Energie strives to minimize its environmental impact, while also inspiring a responsible approach across all its operations, including employee care and a positive social impact in the field of culture.

Warm thanks to Varga Photo for the photo documentation of the exhibition.
