PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY
Tadashi Kawamata is famous for his in-situ installations, designed in close relation to their environment, whether natural, urban, or architectural. Working with wood and reused materials, the artist creates fragile, immersive structures that invite viewers to take a fresh look at space and landscape.
His approach is based on a sensitive observation of living things: light, air currents, vegetation, and natural rhythms feed into a creative process involving drawings and models before large-scale production.
Through his work, the artist encourages us to rethink our view of the world around us and to observe the vibrations of nature, essential to the harmony of champagne.
In May, Tadashi Kawamata will unveil in situ installations for Ruinart, designed especially for the 4 RUE DES CRAYÈRES site in Reims.

RUINART AND ART
For nearly three centuries, Maison Ruinart has been crafting its champagnes in harmony with nature, observing the soil, vines, and biodiversity to reveal the elegance and finesse of its Chardonnay. Today, this living relationship with the natural world is reinterpreted through art in the Conversations with Nature series.
Convinced that art has the power to transform, connect, and enlighten, the House invites committed artists to give voice to living things, raise awareness, and inspire a deeper connection with nature. Each work thus becomes a bridge between the viewer and the world around them, offering a sensory and poetic experience while highlighting the fragile balance of ecosystems.
