Perrier-Jouët
Within this unexpected, joyful vision of the world that the Maison calls the Art of the Wild, nature reveals itself in all its freedom and exuberance. It is an unbridled nature that reasserts itself.
Maison Perrier-Jouët regularly partners with contemporary artists to bring its cultural heritage to life through the prism of the 21st century and the Art of the Wild. In this context, the Maison asked Sølve Sundsbø, a fashion photographer with a free and unconventional personality, to create a series of images that reflect its singularity. The resulting campaign has just launched worldwide. Bridging the gap between art and photography, Sundsbø delivers a dazzling interpretation of the artistic and floral universe of Maison Perrier-Jouët.The Emile Gallé anemone is, of course, present – not in its original form, but in a reinterpretation conceptualised last year by Luftwerk, a creative duo commissioned by the Maison.The result is a luminous, emotional, vibrant incarnation of the Art of the Wild.
Maison Perrier-Jouët will continue to bring together free spirits who share its values. At the end of the year, a community of ambassadors, from fields including art, design, fashion, gastronomy and hospitality, will start to spread the spirit of the Art of the Wild around the world. More to follow.
In future, the Art of the Wild – in many different expressions and creative executions – will be the link between all the experiences offered by Maison Perrier-Jouët.

About Perrier-Jouët
Founded in 1811 in Epernay, Maison Perrier-Jouët is one of France’s most historic champagne houses, but also one of its most distinctive, renowned for its floral and intricate champagnes which reveal the true essence of the Chardonnay grape and an enduring tradition of savoir-faire – an unparalleled expertise of only seven Cellar Masters since its foundation. A boutique house with a family spirit, Perrier-Jouët has been profoundly influenced by its founders’ love of nature and art – twin inspirations which allow it to create exceptional experiences and moments of wonder that enhance everyday life. Since its 1902 collaboration with Art Nouveau pioneer Emile Gallé, creator of the anemone design for its Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque prestige cuvée, Perrier-Jouët has commissioned work from established and emerging artists including Daniel Arsham, Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance, Miguel Chevalier, Makoto Azuma, Tord Boontje, Studio Glithero and Simon Heijdens, and more recently Vik Muniz, mischer’traxler, Ritsue Mishima, Andrew Kudless and Luftwerk.
