Maserati Quattroporte covered in shattered glass.

[G.T]

This is a Maserati Quattroporte covered with 1,763 lbs of shattered glass. It was put together by Italian artist Luca Pancrazzi and is currently outside the Moscow Museum of Modern Art welcoming guests to the second Moscow Art Biennale that runs through April 1st. If this was a Ferrari or Lamborghini I'd probably be on the floor right now, cursing the heavens and crying like a little baby.

I certainly wouldn't want to be hit by that thing... But it's unusual and amazing all at once!

How's it done? Static charge or just lots of glue?

 

[Danny]

Pedestrian ratings?

Oh, lol!

 

[Sakiale]

Why make a heavy car so much heavier? Pretty cool though.

 

[Jim Prower]

Why add MORE weight to a quattroporte? and make it look like a porcupine.

 

[Dougboy]

The perfect anti-theft system. Anybody who touches it gets cut

Thats got to suck for bugs.

It must be a pain to wash. (no pun intended)

You know what it looks exactly like? Those outtake renders from the Shrek DVD where they accidently made the Donkey's fur way too long.

Assuming all that shattered glass is covering every area of the car but the windows, how did they manage to open the door?

Can It cut my lawn...?

Assuming all that shattered glass is covering every area of the car but the windows, how did they manage to open the door?

Very carefully.


And with gloves.


Actually, they've probably added the remote system that people use when they shave off door handles.

Very Health & Safety. Probably built by them to promote the fact that being run over really doe's hurt.

I think it was made for the Russian museum to be a Siberian Maserati.
