Hennessy celebrates their 250th anniversary at the Guangzhou Opera House

Celebrating their 250th anniversary, the Hennessy 250 Tour exhibition has opened at the Guangzhou Opera House. The exhibition and offers a 360 ° perspective on Hennessy’s past, present and future through the eyes of contemporary artists and designers. Each artist travelled to Cognac, France to learn about Hennessey’s heritage and culture, and was given carte blanche by curator Hervé Mikaeloff to interpret it in their own way. The exhibition will also present some of the company’s archives, portraits, and videos to provide an insight to the story of the house. Live performances will also take place at each venue with local artists invited to participate.

The Hennessy 250 Tour will be showcased at the Guangzhou Opera House throughout March before travelling to Moscow’s Le New Manège, New York’s Lincoln Center, Johannesburg’s Circa Gallery and the Paris in September.
