Aldo Spoldi
Barone Rosso GT, 1992
sheet metal and various materials, 220 × 90 × 70 cm



Donated to the Foundation by the artist at the end of the exhibition La scultura italiana del XX secolo (2005-2006), in this work Aldo Spoldi enlarges a tin toy car, Barone Rosso (Red Baron), built and designed by the Bank of Oklahoma team as an ironic challenge to the Ferrari Testarossa. The reference to the reckless aviator and the beauty of speed are a tribute to the dynamism and the myth of the machine proclaimed by the Futurists. Paradoxically, however, this car is and will always remain immobile.
