An exhibition dedicated to Formula 1 at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lissone

From Sept. 4 to Nov. 24, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lissone is hosting the exhibition Red cars on the occasion of the Formula 1 Grand Prix.

The exhibition was originally born as a film for which director David Cronenberg wrote the screenplay after shooting the film Crash, but that film was never made and became an artist’s volume edited by Volumina published in 2005, which was presented with enormous success at the 62nd Venice Film Festival, at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome in collaboration with the Rome Film Festival, at the Lucca Film Festival and in countries around the world.

The exhibition showcases 200 works from this volume, which in turn brings together photographs from theFerrari archives with cutaways of engines, vintage images, blueprints and models of Formula 1 cars that take us back to the 1961 Monza Grand Prix, when Ferrari driver Phil Hill challenged his teammate Wolfgang von Trips for the title of Formula 1 World Champion.

The review is accompanied by a video with period clips, sounds, noises and suggestions around the complex world of Formula 1 engines. The book, with its aluminum cover and metal model of the Ferrari 156 F1 specially created by Brumm, is enclosed in a white box with the logo.

Hours: Wednesday and Friday 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.; Thursday 4 p.m. to 11 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m. to noon and 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Opening Wednesday, Sept. 4, 6:30 p.m.

Free admission.
