June 14, 1975, 4pm. The French flag is waved by Jean-Marie Balestre, then director of the FFSA, giving the start to the most legendary of endurance events, the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Among the 55 cars taking part, the public noticed a stunning BMW 3.0 CSL, sporting an incredible livery. At its wheel, legendary auctioneer Hervé Poulain, a gentleman driver in his own right, commissioned artist Alexander Calder, known for his revolutionary mobiles, set in motion by the air, to paint his mount.

Figuration movement. His work is characterized by a visual critique of industrial society, using elements drawn from advertising, industrial signage and medical images to explore themes of alienation and human isolation.
Klasen, a graduate of the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin, often combines photography, painting and found objects in complex compositions that question the relationship between technology and humanity. His work provokes reflection on the impact of modernity on the individual, making him an important voice in European contemporary art. He mainly composes paintings combining the representation of industrial objects with details of the female body.
Since the late 1990s, Peter Klasen has produced a handful of Art Car works, including two racing Porsches
(a GT2 from 1998 and a 911 from 1965), two Ferraris and... a Tesla S. This Ferrari 328 GTS was commissioned around 2010 by a French gallery owner with a passion for the Mecca.

000 km (odometer changed at 85,000 km, invoice on file), this Ferrari has benefited from regular maintenance (service book present),
including a major overhaul and replacement of the timing belts in 2021, by the Paris Londres Automobiles garage in Gentilly. Unused since then, it will need to be restarted and serviced before being driven again.

This unique Art Car, which has been exhibited in museums, Contemporary Art galleries, at Le Mans Classic or at Chantilly Art & Elegance by Richard Mille, is sold with its framed autographed lithograph, a book on the Mecanica exhibition in Paris in 2014, including its making of, as well as a book on its exhibition at the Posco Museum in Seoul, Korea.
