New Johnnie Walker Blue Label Opens Museum Doors |
|
|
|
NEW YORK.- The makers of Johnnie Walker(R) Blue Label(R) today announced plans to bring contemporary art to the public through a new multi-million dollar integrated marketing campaign that uses contemporary art to reinforce Blue Label as a luxury brand.
The centerpiece of the campaign is the first in a series of works of art featuring Johnnie Walker Blue Label by Warren du Preez and Nick Thornton- Jones, two of Britain's leading creative artists. The artists use a combination of photography and digital imaging to create a luxuriously abstract visual that reinforces the rarity and exclusivity of Johnnie Walker Blue Label. The stunning and innovative work of art engages consumers and challenges them to discern the image; a point that is driven home by the tagline, "For those who know what to look for."
"The world of contemporary art is a metaphor for the rare, exclusive Blue Label experience," said Chris Parsons, Vice President, Scotch Marketing, Diageo NA. "The contemporary art we've created with these talented artists becomes a visual link to the space that our target consumers want to occupy. As portrayed by the works of art, Johnnie Walker Blue Label belongs in a luxury environment, so too does our consumer."
The works of art convey a broader umbrella theme of art that will be used in an integrated campaign consisting of print and out-of-home advertising, Public Relations activities and Point of Sale and Merchandising Displays.
The print campaign, created by BBH-New York, will begin running in December issues of publications such as New York Times Magazine, GQ, Esquire, Robb Report and Travel & Leisure; and in daily newspaper ads in the New York Times.
Other highlights of the marketing initiative include:
