The latest artist x alcoholic beverage collaborations comes in the form of Jeff Koons’s limited edition new bottle for Dom Perignon, revealing the Balloon Venus. This is the latest in a series of collaborations with artists, which have previously included; David Lynch, Marc Newson, Karl Lagerfeld and even a homage to Andy Warhol. To mark the occasion, Koons created a limited edition 2-foot sculpture based on his pre-existing 8-foot Balloon Venus sculpture paying homage to the power of a continued creative energy and echoing the spiritual legacy of Dom Pierre Pérignon.
The Balloon Venus incarnates and accompanies the Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2003. When opened, the Balloon Venus unveils a limited edition bottle of Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2003 designed by Jeff Koons.
The bespoke made to order Balloon Venus’s for Dom Pérignon is available at a price of £15,500. To celebrate the collaboration, Claridge’s hotel has transformed one of its pop up boutiques into an interactive exhibition paying homage to Koons’ use of vivid colours, reflective materials and bold design which is open until the end of November – so don’t miss out!
