All auctions / Vehicles / Artwork - Porsche - IN CASE OF PORSCHE
25 x 20 x 10 cm Black wooden frame, engraved plexiglass. With storage box. Limited edition 11/100. Catawiki Exclusive IN CASE OF PORSCHE reworks the iconic “Break Glass” emergency case to make a sleek, minimalist automotive statement. Behind the engraved plexiglass “IN CASE OF EMERGENCY – BREAK GLASS,” a Porsche key rests like a sacred object, ready to be released. The urgency here is not medical; it is mechanical. The urgency of hearing the flat-six start. The urgency of feeling the road. The Porsche urgency. The deep black frame evokes sobriety and German precision. The key, the ultimate symbol of access to one of the legends of automotive history, becomes a contemporary wall sculpture. The functional object becomes a collectible artifact. Fully handmade in France by Cartist, this work embodies the meeting of minimalist conceptual art and German automotive heritage. It plays with the codes of industrial design, desire, and the modern obsession with performance. Who is Cartist?
