Neo-Expressionism Tequilas

1800 Tequila's New Bottles Honor Artist Jean-Michel Basquiat

— May 5, 2014 — Art & Design
Jean-Michel Basquiat was one of the most iconic artists of the 80s. He had a knack for unique contemporary art and was known for his rebellious techniques. Tequila distillers '1800 Tequila' decided to pay homage to the late artist with its latest collection of limited-edition bottles.

The bottles feature six of his original paintings, which are an expressive mix of contemporary art and graffiti drawings. A spokesperson for 1800 Tequila says the reasoning behind the collection is that Basquiat "shared the same core values as the world’s most singularly drinkable tequila, consistently refusing to fall victim to gratuitous trend."

The nonconforming artist will be the the third artist who the spirit company has featured, falling behind Shepard Fairey and Gary Baseman. However, this is the first time it has dedicated every bottle to one artist.
Trend Themes
1. Neo-expressionism in Branding - Opportunity for brands to collaborate with artists and incorporate neo-expressionist elements into their products for a unique and visually striking appeal.
2. Limited-edition Artist Collaborations - Growing trend of brands partnering with renowned artists to create limited-edition products, fostering a sense of exclusivity and attracting art enthusiasts.
3. Art-inspired Packaging - Increasing demand for products with creative packaging inspired by art, providing a memorable and visually appealing consumer experience.
Industry Implications
1. Alcohol and Spirits - Alcohol brands can explore collaborations with artists to create limited-edition bottles and tap into the growing market of art collectors.
2. Luxury Goods - Luxury brands can leverage artist collaborations to create unique, high-end products that appeal to art aficionados and differentiate themselves in the market.
3. Marketing and Advertising - Marketing agencies can help brands create and promote artist collaboration campaigns to increase brand visibility, engage consumers, and drive sales.
