Illuminated Wall Relief with Car and Lights for Driving Instructions

About the Item

The wall mounted 1970's artwork of car, demonstrating driving instructions for the use of car lights. The manual instruction panel at the bottom can be used to switch on the various car lights and learn about the function of the operation of the lights in driving. This model was produced by Heinrich Vogel in Munchen, Germany for driving schools. It's a interactive artwork on the wall. This wall mounted learning aide looks almost looks like the 1960's work of Andy Warhol as if he created a celebrity portrait. Instead this is a celebration of the car of the 1970's. Warhol used photographic silkscreen printing to create his celebrity portraits. The photographic silkscreen printing reproduces images almost like a tabloid photograph. The technique also allows to easily reproduce versions and variations of the prints but it is the mounted colored head lights-low and high beam when switched on and off brings it all to life!
