Computer-generated outline? Nope. It’s real. Dubbed “Modern Japanese Classic,” this 1:1 Subaru Impreza wire frame sculpture is the work of British artist Benedict Radcliffe. Apparently local traffic cops weren’t pleased that the art was parked outside of the gallery on the street, as over the course of a few days, it was issued a few parking tickets! The 
piece was recently displayed as part of a larger Radcliffe show at the Paul Smith Gallery in Mayfair last month, and we’re sorry we missed it.
Among some of the artist’s other transportation-related pieces? An interesting Marilyn Monroe painting on a car hood, with BMW’s roundel emblem employed as the iconic actress’ beauty mark. Radcliffe also displayed a full-size vehicle made up of the two halves of a black Volkswagen Golf, giving the sculpture a minivan/transportation pod look. Great stuff.
