The Spirit of Art

Images by Richard Schroeder. As praise to street art and cognac, Hennessy and Futura join efforts to "never stop, never settle." The new limited edition bottle, which is available today displays a multilayered design of primary spherical atomic globes over a deep red and black underpainting. The inspiration is drawn from the spirit's warm colored tones. Both Hennessy and Futura have given back to the future generation of up and coming artists through work with New York's Pratt Institute. In a competition, 8 students presented their interpretations of Hennessy adage "never stop, never settle." The winner, Michael Cook, was granted seed money to aid in jumpstarting his career and will be flown to Paris with Futura in October. ~ Mister Lee http://www.hennessy.com/ http://www.futura2000.com/
