Art cars have become an integral part of the auto industry, and it doesn’t surprise us to find out that more and more models have been treated to some sort of artistic interpretation by artists from all over the world.
Recently,the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, Germany announced a special exhibition on a new collection of decorative hoods for the Porsche 911 GT2. The exhibit is called Colección Goméz after Argentinian curator Jorge Goméz, a man whose love for art is only matched by his love for Porsches. The end result is rather impressive as the various pieces have been decorated with everything from acrylic to rubber.
Porsche enlisted the services of 19 Latin American artists to create 24 dynamic bonnets for the 911 GT2, each coming with their own unique designs. Every form of artwork – be it the simple variety or the meticulously designed – offered a different perspective on the artistic style of each of the artists that were involved in the project.
The Colección Goméz exhibition will run until January 8, 2012 and is available for public consumption from Tuesdays through Sundays between 9 am to 6 pm. If you happen to be in Stuttgart from here until the new year, it’s definitely something that’s worth your time.
