The most travel fine art typically undergoes is between museums, where valuable masterpieces are loaned or exhibited across various cultural institutions to be admired by art enthusiasts worldwide—but with its Get Out There campaign, EasyJet is turning the works of Vermeer, Michelangelo and Rodin into jetsetters. This new campaign debuted with a 30-second spot depicting Mona Lisa preparing to board a flight to Athens. Similarly, Michelangelo’s David can be seen stepping off a plane and The Thinker ponders his options on a cafe menu.
Intentionally using characters that are recognizable and "live" in Europe, EasyJet brings the benefits of travel to life in a way that may inspire others who feel as if they've been stuck in place for too long. This promises to resonate with people post-pandemic, as they're filled with a strong desire to travel and seek out new adventures and experiences.
