New Stella Artois Campaign to Make Sundance Debut

PrintNew Stella Artois Campaign to Make Sundance Debut  

PARK CITY, Utah -- Renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz has harnessed her creative talent on behalf of Stella Artois. Leibovitz shot a new campaign for the Belgian beer that will be unveiled tomorrow at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival.

“Annie Leibovitz’ work marries artistic genius with painstaking craftsmanship to create timeless beauty,” said Emma Fox, global marketing director for Stella Artois. “This concept is a personal one for Stella Artois. Our fans experience the beer in its finished form, but 600 years of brewing expertise helped make this possible. So, we wanted to celebrate both the beauty and the craftsmanship that go into its creation.”

Stella Artois will hold a launch party tomorrow to unveil the campaign at the Sundance Film Festival, of which it is the official beer sponsor. British actor Noah Huntley, who stars in the campaign alongside Ukrainian model Tanya Ruban, will host the event. Leibovitz’ work will serve as the visual centerpiece of the party.

Additionally, Stella Artois has engaged with a global mix of bloggers who use photography as their medium. These bloggers were asked to develop images of "timeless beauty,” and their work will also be displayed at Sundance.

The Annie Leibovitz campaign launch party is one of several events Stella Artois is hosting this year at the Park City, Utah, film festival. From today through Sunday, Jan. 20, Stella Artois will host events – including press conferences for films screening at Sundance, food tastings with famed chefs and evening receptions – at three different event spaces. These include Studio Stella Artois, the Stella Artois Café and the Cutting Room.

“Sundance is the premiere destination for American and international independent filmmakers to showcase their work,” said Rick Oleshak, director of Stella Artois. “And just as the filmmakers strive to bring something new and exciting each year to the festival, everyone at Stella Artois does the same. We are excited to debut the campaign from Annie Leibovitz this year, as well as some of the other new and exciting events taking place at our venues.”

Following Sundance, Leibovitz’ work will appear in GQ, Elle and Vanity Fair, beginning in February.

The beer brand also created an online experience. Beginning on Jan. 18, the site will feature the stills from the Annie Leibovitz shoot, as well as interviews with the subjects, stylists and craftsmen behind the new campaign.
