Metropolis World Tour ABSOLUT METROPOLIS, the communication project advertised in
leading international trend press and shot in Japan in spring 2005, is
a global success.
The project is all about self expressions. People off the streets
dressed in clothes created under the auspices of Japanese fashion
designer Piyuupiru and portrayed by star photographer Nadav Kander,
have featured in fashion and lifestyle magazines all over the world
since July 2005. ABSOLUT METROPOLIS has continued, with exhibition
parties in the world's metropolises. In London, an event was held at
the 291 Gallery in Hackney. During a sneak preview of the next edition
of TRACE Magazine - the media partner for ABSOLUT METROPOLIS - the
pictures from the campaign were shown, and guests were served ABSOLUT
cocktails and sushi to music played by a Japanese DJ.

In New York, the party was co-organized with Tokion magazine. Drinks
were served and postcards with ABSOLUT METROPOLIS motifs were
distributed to the guests. In San Francisco the event was co-hosted by
Planet magazine. Guests could feast their eyes on the campaign prints
in frames designed by students from the San Francisco School of Art.
The Paris celebration was magnificent at the modern art museum Palais
de Tokyo on 21 September (picture above) in connection with an
exhibition of works by Nadav Kander, the photographer behind the
campaign. The concluding events will be held in Tokyo and in Guangzhou,
China.
The campaign continues for the rest of this year and will feature in
some 45 magazines globally. Whatever you do, don't miss the website
