Generative Art Cognac Bottles

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Hennessy and Florian Zumbrunn Collaborated on Special Packaging

— December 19, 2024 — Tech
Hennessy and Florian Zumbrunn, the French generative artist, teamed up for a limited-edition cognac release to reimagine the brand's Hennessy X.O expression. Zumbrunn and creative agency OK C’EST COOL made the most of a series of algorithms that autonomously generated random compositions, which were then painted onto the iconic decanters with a robotic arm.

At the brand's boutique location in Cognac, France, guests are able to request specific color palettes via a tablet and have a hand in influencing the end result that the generative artist is renowned for. These exclusive, artful collector's pieces come in at €1,200 (US$1,260) per decanter, and the cost includes a print signed by the artist.

This work with Zumbrunn is one of several Hennessy-artist collaborations in 2024 that reimagine the iconic X.O Cognac.
