BOMBAY SAPPHIRE X BASQUIAT
2022-11-14The artwork references one of Basquiat’s earliest works, Untitled (L.A Painting), which has never been licensed before and appeared only once in his second ever show. Dominated by the same light blue of the alcohol brand, the composition contains many key visuals emblematic of Basquiat’s career, the crown, the bird, the coin, and the skull, amongst many.
“We are honored to shine a light on Basquiat’s dynamic creativity and offer an entirely new way to experience art” said Jaime Keller, Brand Director of Bombay Sapphire North America, in a statement. “This bottle represents our longstanding history of supporting creative visionaries in our mission to make the art world more accessible. Through the release of our third artist-designed Special Edition bottle, we are allowing people access to Jean-Michel Basquiat’s art to be inspired by his work for generations to come.”
