*재규어E 타입 설치미술품 [ Gerry Judah ] Jaguar E-Type Sculpture

재규어 그를 말하다.

역사속에 전설이 된 재규어 E타입은 150마일의 속도를

능가는 퍼포먼스와 아름다운 자태로 모든이에게 사랑을 받았다.

수많은 시간속에 자동차 디자인 유행의 변화와 다양한 승객들의

패러다임의 변화속에서도

재규어 E타입은 50년의 세월을 훌쩍 뛰어넘는

디자인과 유산을 우리에게 보여준다.

지금 길이 28미터,무게 175톤의 스틸파이프로 재구성된 조각물은

2011년 새롭게 재조명하는 조각물은

우리를 1960년대로 다시 돌려준다.

Made from half a kilometre of steel tubing with a diameter of 1.2 metres, the sculpture weighs over 175 tonnes and shows the car balanced on its front bumper.

The iconic Jaguar E-Type was first unveiled fifty years ago at the Geneva Motor Show.

 

Jaguar E-Type Sculpture  - Goodwood Festival of Speed 2011

Very few cars in history have matched the allure of the Jaguar E-Type. The sensational Malcolm Sayer design, 150 mph performance and race-winning heritage gave it a unique combination of beauty, speed and credibility. The E-Type was an overnight sensation when it was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 1961. Despite changing fashions and the passage of time, our fascination with the E-Type is as strong today as it was 50 years ago, and those swooping curves are still as breathtaking as they were when Enzo Ferrari described it as “the most beautiful car ever made.”

Constructed using half a kilometre of 1200mm diameter steel tube, this sculpture by Gerry Judah stands 28 metres tall and weighs over 175 tonnes – the equivalent to 135 E-types! A striking tribute to a true motoring icon.
