Photos: Futura x Hennessy launch – Melbourne
Last week, we were lucky enough to check out a series of events in Melbourne that made up the launch of the Futura x Hennessy limited edition bottle.
Futura is one of those names that resonates with every single person that’s been a part of the graffiti and street art culture. He is an innovator, a pioneer of the abstract graffiti movement and a true living legend.
To celebrate the Hennessy bottle, the day was packed full of all things Futura. We walked the streets, taking in Melbourne’s thriving street art and graff scene, fans then got to meet Futura for a signing and a lecture at Story Hall (RMIT). To round the night off, Hennessy hosted a party where there were artworks on show and the man himself painting live in front of a small crowd. Very rare to see this man in action AND to hear speak live and uncut, so needless to say we were excited to witness it all.
