The Ruinart Carte Blanche art program encourages artists to take inspiration from Ruinart’s history and conceptualise a contemporary art project that pays tribute to the Maison’s values. For 2022, Carte Blanche artist Jeppe Hein presents the artistic interpretation Right Here, Right Now, placing the viewer at the heart of the terroir of the world’s oldest champagne house. Appealing to our senses and summoning the elements, the Danish-born artist pays homage to both the champagne making process, derived from sun, earth, water and air, and the five senses - taste, smell, touch, hearing and sight - that ground the viewer’s experience. 

FEASTING FOR THE EYES 

Inspired by Jeppe Hein’s Right Here, Right Now, the artistic experience will be translated through the Ruinart Carte Blanche Dinner experience, in collaboration with Asaya Kitchen at the Rosewood Hotel. Connecting the chef and the artist, this multi-layered approach encourages guests to indulge and delight in all of their senses. Conceived from the creative guidelines of Jeppe Hein, from the décor, music and the interactive nature of the dishes, this is a culinary adventure out of normal confines.  

Bringing art and gastronomy together, two creative expressions converge in search of taste and emotion. Aligned in their sensibilities for environmentally sustainable practices, Maison Ruinart, Jeppe Hein and Asaya Kitchen unite to create this meaningful moment of responsible epicureanism.  

ART BASEL HONG KONG  

Concurrently, the Ruinart bar situated in the Art Basel VIP lounge ran for the whole duration of Art Basel, where invited guests are able to enjoy a glass of champagne as a perfect complement to the Art Basel experience.
