We’re thrilled to announce a new creative partnership with Bisturi, the artistic persona of Italian visual artist Gianmarco Sieni. Known for his sharp, distinctive style and his ability to expose the deeper layers of human emotion, Bisturi brings an expressive visual language that transcends conventional forms. His work is raw, geometric, bold, and deeply narrative. Now, for the first time, his art becomes the vessel through which whiskey comes alive.
Together with Luxco and Gruppo Meregalli, we’re launching a series of exclusive multisensory events in Italy, blending contemporary art with the character of Rebel Bourbon. The goal is simple: transform the way people experience whiskey, turning every sip into a moment of storytelling, craftsmanship, and discovery.
A Two-Night Artistic Journey
27 November – Kadavè, Sant’Anastasia (NA)
28 November – Bar Atelier, Cava de’ Tirreni (SA)
Across two evenings, guests will explore a curated experience where Bisturi’s artistic vision meets the bold, rebellious spirit of Rebel Bourbon.
Each event weaves together different sensory dimensions:

Art Gallery Exhibition
Attendees can immerse themselves in Bisturi’s visual universe, from his monoline aesthetic to the emotionally charged themes explored in works like Sad Boy, Tears of Sulfur, and Foie Gras. His pieces provoke introspection, inviting viewers to confront the emotions and contradictions we often keep hidden.
Whiskey Tasting with Rebel Bourbon
A guided tasting highlights the depth, spice, and character of Rebel Bourbon, chosen for its unapologetic profile and ability to stand alongside strong artistic voices.

Live Cocktail Demonstrations
For this project, Bisturi is creating bespoke vessels inspired by his artworks. These vessels aren’t just decorative; they’re integral to the cocktail experience. Each pour interacts with the form, texture, and symbolism of his designs, bringing art directly into the hands of every guest.
Cocktail Pairings & Canapés
Each drink is paired with thoughtfully crafted bites that amplify both flavour and story.
Live Music
Sound becomes the final layer, enhancing the atmosphere and tying the entire sensory journey together.

Art as a Vessel, Whiskey as a Story
Gianmarco Sieni’s work exposes the inner tensions, emotions, and contradictions that define the human condition. Whether he’s exploring ego, addiction, heartbreak, or social immersion, his style cuts with the precision of the blade he’s named after. Bringing his creativity into the world of Rebel Bourbon makes each cocktail an extension of his artistic message: immersive, expressive, and unafraid of depth.
Rebel Bourbon, with its heritage and unconventional spirit, becomes the perfect counterpart. Together, they form an encounter between art and drink that is bold, introspective, and entirely new.
A Celebration of Italian Creativity and American Whiskey
This collaboration is more than an event; it’s a cultural exchange. The visceral, contemporary energy of Italian art meets the rebellious soul of American whiskey. It’s a celebration of craft, emotion, and the people who bring meaning to these two worlds.
Join us as we raise a glass to creativity without boundaries.
