911

The art­work “911” por­trays the icon of sports-car design as a pre­cise side view in cool blue tones. The flow­ing fast­back sil­hou­ette, empha­sized wheel arches, and char­ac­ter­is­tic Fuchs wheels evoke the air-cooled era of the Porsche 911 Car­rera. On a calm ground, the crisp line draw­ing feels like frozen motion: ten­sion with­out noise, ele­gance with­out show. “911” is both homage and distillate—a pic­ture about speed, stance, and the time­less aura of a clas­sic. “911” is part of the art series “Blue in a Square”, which includes 300+ artworks.

Object of desire.

It’s crazy how such an object of desire carves out and holds its place in the sub­con­scious. Even as a teenag­er, the 911 Car­rera was the ter­mi­nus of long­ing. Reason can’t explain it. This object radi­ates some­thing that is truly rare. It defines a status. It’s sur­round­ed by an aura that only very few such objects are grant­ed. Even though you can’t fit two crates of water in it. Even though you can hardly drive fast any­more anyway. Yet every­thing about this car con­stant­ly reminds you of what it stands for. But only up to the 993, exact­ly up to the last series with an air-cooled flat engine. Right up to 1998. After that, the dream blurs. The feel­ing of desire dis­solves like an aspirin in a glass of water. And that’s a good thing. There are things you can improve tech­ni­cal­ly, but not emotionally.

The art­work ‘911’ appeals to a pos­i­tive cul­ture of memory. It stands for that pos­i­tive cul­ture of memory. With the old Porsche, you asso­ciate so many beau­ti­ful feel­ings that every time you see one, your pulse quick­ens. You can’t take your eyes off it. The art­work ‘911’ is avail­able exclu­sive­ly online via my art store on my web­site. For good reason, this piece hangs in no gallery, to keep the dis­tance between artist and art lover as small as pos­si­ble. We’re only an online form or an email apart. That feels very good.
