BMW M3 GTR Sandro Chia
As a child, Sandro Chia drew graffiti on cars, but it must be said that he has revised his attitude somewhat in the interim period: "The automobile is a sought-after possession in society and all eyes are upon it. People look closely at cars. The one I have painted here reflects their gaze. Like a mirror, it confronts the people who look at it."

The car itself merely served as a surface onto which his own imagination could be projected, without representing a formal restraint. The artist himself supplied this interpretation of the work: "In painting the BMW 635 CSi, I gave expression to various experiences, fears, desires and implorations, but also to free aesthetic artistic creativity. I call this car 'Firefox on Harehunt'. It represents a hare racing across a motorway at night and leaping over a burning car - the primeval fear and bold dream of surmounting a dimension in which we live."
