Hommage to Christo
Porsche 911 SC 1982
Oneshot, photographed in the Staud Studios Leonberg, 2013
René Staud’s favorite picture “Hommage to Christo” was taken in the summer of 2013 at Staud Studios in Leonberg. It is a so-called one-shot, which means that it was photographed exactly as you see it today, without any image editing. The idea for the picture came from Christo’s wish to wrap an automobile at some point in his life. Unfortunately, this wish was never fulfilled by Christo and Jeanne-Claude and due to the great esteem in which the artist couple were held, René wrapped his own Porsche 911 SC, a 1982 G-model, and staged the car photographically in the style of Christo and Jeanne-Claude.
