Absolut Mexico Bottle Features Original Designs by Contemporary Mexican Artist Dr. Lakra
World’s most iconic vodka brand pays homage to Mexican culture and multicultural heritage. Three legendary icons from ancient Mayan culture – Hurakan (Hurricane), Kukulkan (Serpent) and Balam (Jaguar) are brought to life on the new Absolut Mexico limited-edition bottle designed by Dr. Lakra, one of Mexico’s most renowned contemporary artists and tattooists, from Oaxaca, Mexico.
The work of Dr. Lakra, also known as Jeronimo Lopez Ramirez, has been featured in exhibitions and museums around the world, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Hammer Museum and the Walker Art Center.
“The bottle’s colors – shades of orange, green, blue and yellow – make a stunning sight for entertaining, not only as a delicious libation, but also as a collector’s art piece,” said Pernod Ricard USA in the official statement.
