Beauty contest for classic automobiles and cutting-edge concept cars at Lake
Como +++ Enzo Naso designs new event poster
Munich. The most traditional of all beauty contests for classic automobiles and
contemporary concept cars - the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este - takes place
on 21 and 22 April next year in Cernobbio on Lake Como.
In addition to numerous exceptional classics, a range of forward-looking
concept cars and prototypes will contribute to this colourful gathering against
the picturesque backdrop of the aristocratic Grand Hotel Villa d'Este. This is
the image reproduced on the official event poster for 2007, designed by Italian
artist Enzo Naso. Taking his inspiration from last year's winning cars, the
Ferrari 410 Super America Coupé of 1959 and the Alfa Romeo 8C Spider concept
car, Naso has designed a poster that juxtaposes black-and-white and colour
drawings to highlight the appeal of the Concorso under its motto "Classic meets
modern".
Year after year, fans of dream cars from the past and design aficionados alike
relish the display of four-wheeled gems when the international jury presents
such coveted prizes as the Coppa d'Oro Villa d'Este, the Trofeo BMW Group and
the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este Design Award. 2007 sees the ninth
successive staging of the event under the patronage of the BMW Group.
