26 一月 2021 CLASSIC FUSION TAKASHI MURAKAMI ALL BLACK When a watch becomes a work of art: The Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black blurs the lines! For its first collaboration with a Japanese contemporary artist, Hublot has pushed at the boundaries of creation by developing a new dynamic on the theme of Murakami’s artistic emblem, the smiling flower. Hublot loves Art! Before we know how to talk, we sing. Before we know how to write, we draw. We can barely stand up and we dance. Art is at the very foundation of human beings, a truth that has been embraced by the Hublot manufacture through its “The Art of Fusion” motto. The watchmaking manufacture regularly draws on great creative spirits. Our team of ambassadors is now joined for the first time by one of the most internationally renowned living artists: Takashi Murakami. His visually very modern style offers a subtle reflection between Japanese tradition and pop culture. He masterfully achieves this result by combining leading-edge multimedia tools with traditional Japanese techniques such as gold leaf. A real rock star in the contemporary art world, he coined the name Superflat for the artistic movement he began. An initial visit to the Hublot manufacture in February 2020 enabled Takashi Murakami to familiarise himself with the work of a watchmaker and timepiece design. This triggered a creative process that resulted in the very innovative Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami, inspired by Murakami’s icon, the smiling flower. Here, it is present both in and on the watch. Thanks to an ingenious ball-bearing system developed by Hublot’s engineers, its petals start turning. The center of the smiling flower is inserted onto the sapphire glass, creating a unique three-dimensional effect to go along with its wide prominent smile. The Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black takes up one of the most evocative Hublot signatures, the All Black! Invented by Hublot in 2006, it turns out that the “All Black” style is also one of Murakami’s artistic signatures. For an even more pronounced effect, the petals (456 brilliants) and face (107 brilliants) are here set with black diamonds. The watchmakers in Nyon have installed their manufacture Unico calibre in the case with its Classic Fusion emblematic design, a movement offering a 72-hour power reserve. As the first collaboration between Hublot and a Japanese artist, the Classic Fusion Takashi Murakami All Black will quickly become a real collector’s item since it is limited to only 200 models. 阅读更多 “Takashi Murakami is an international star, not only in contemporary art circles but also with the general public. He shakes up the borders between art and pop culture. It is a real privilege to see him join our team of ambassadors. We are delighted with the launch of this watch-work of art!” Ricardo Guadalupe HUBLOT CEO “When I visited the Hublot manufacture in Switzerland for the first time, I realised to what extent the traditional know-how, precision, futuristic technology and craftsmanship were all intertwined in the creation of a watch. Bringing my art into the creativity of these watchmakers represents a unique adventure for me. ” Takashi Murakami Contemporary Artist 艺术与音乐 TAKASHI MURAKAMI 了解更多 ©TM/KK 最新动态 基利安·姆巴佩与尤塞恩·博尔特现身BIG BANG之夜 共同庆祝HUBLOT宇舶表的标志性腕表问世20周年 【2025年4月3日,日内瓦】作为“钟表与奇迹”高级钟表展(Watches & Wonders)的一部分,瑞士奢华制表品牌HUBLOT宇舶表于日内瓦体育馆(Geneva Arena)留下了一个值得纪念的夜晚,在两位品牌大使基利安·姆巴佩(Kylian Mbappé)和尤塞恩·博尔特(Usain Bolt)的首次相遇和共同见证下,庆祝其标志性的Big Bang系列问世20周年。这场令人难忘的庆祝活动不仅是对宇舶表的先驱精神的一次致敬,更是对品牌“融合的艺术”(Art of Fusion)制表理念的一曲颂歌。 了解更多 HUBLOT宇舶表臻呈以彩色陶瓷打造的情侣对表 推出青灰蓝及薄荷绿配色的全新BIG BANG UNICO腕表和BIG BANG“一键式”腕表(33毫米) 【4月1日,瑞士日内瓦】鲜艳的彩色陶瓷拥有难以抗拒的魅力,令人心驰神往。瑞士奢华制表品牌HUBLOT宇舶表成功开创先河,不断探索陶瓷色彩的无限可能。此次,品牌为标志性Big Bang系列再添两种全新配色,首次亮相于两组情侣对表,再次展现了其在陶瓷领域的精湛技艺。全新陶瓷色彩男女皆宜,其灵感源自时尚经典的春季色调,既相互映衬又截然不同。它们引人遐想、魅力无限、独树一帜。 了解更多
