A STATE OF THE ART CELEBRATION

Jhannesburg selected as one of four cities in the world to host Hennessy’s 250th anniversary art exhibition featuring world-renowned artists including Anton Corbijn, Charles Sandison and Pierrick Sorin

Hennessy, the world’s most superior and best selling cognac, is celebrating its 250th anniversary. It’s a remarkable adventure that has spanned over eight generations and across five continents.

The Hennessy 250 Tour was specially curated to celebrate this momentous anniversary: conceived as an unprecedented, hybrid cultural event, this major travelling exhibition is dedicated to those who have made Hennessy what it is today.

Curated by Hervé Mikaeloff and featuring internationally renowned artists, photographers, filmmakers and designers including Charles Sandison, Anton Corbijn and Xavier Veilhan, the exhibition will touch down in four legendary locations around the world throughout 2015, including Guangzhou in China, Moscow in Russia and New York in USA. Circa Gallery in Johannesburg was selected to represent the African leg of the tour and – in addition to the world-renowned artists – will also feature the work of South African artist Dineo Bopape. The Hennessy 250 Tour will be on at Circa Gallery in Johannesburg from 20 – 25 August 2015.
