The cars that put the 'roar' into the 'Roaring Twenties' and beyond!
This summer, the Frist Center for the Visual Arts in Nashville presents Sensuous Steel: Art Deco Automobiles. It is the first major exhibition of its kind, for which 18 unique cars have been painstakingly sourced by Virginia-based curator Mr Ken Gross for their history, style and sheer Art-Deco audacity.
An auto writer for more than 40 years and former director of the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA, MR PORTER spoke to Mr Gross about this priceless "kinetic art", how these beautiful cars came to be, and what they mean in contemporary culture. "The classic cars of the Art-Deco age remain today as among the most visually exciting, iconic and refined designs of the 20th century," he says.
