A stunning wireframe sculpture of the Porsche 934, created by the renowned artist Benedict Radcliffe, has recently sold for an impressive £201,000 (USD $251,000) at auction—surpassing the actual car it represents. This piece, featuring the iconic orange Jägermeister livery, debuted at the 2022 Milan Design Week and has since captivated audiences at Porsche exhibitions in Beijing and Shanghai.
Radcliffe is widely recognized for his innovative approach to automotive art, crafting masterpieces from tubing. His portfolio features iconic vehicles such as the Ferrari F40 and Jaguar E-Type. However, his latest work—a life-sized rendition of the Porsche 934—has certainly made the biggest impression to date. The sculpture was meticulously built using 32mm mild steel tubes, carefully shaped to reflect the sleek and elegant design of the original racing car in 1:1 proportions.
The Porsche 934 occupies a special place in automotive history, not only because of its rarity—only 31 units were produced—but also for its timeless design, which has captivated the imaginations of car enthusiasts for years. The sculpture, which drew 218 bids at auction, now offers a unique and rare opportunity for the new owner to almost possess a piece of this legendary vehicle.
For those who missed out on this remarkable piece, Radcliffe currently offers other works for sale. His London taxi sculpture is available for USD $204,296, or if you’re seeking something more affordable, you can purchase a 1:15 scale Porsche 959 made from composite resin for USD $5,108. While this particular sculpture has found a permanent home, it’s clear that Radcliffe’s automotive art continues to push boundaries. With the Porsche 934 sculpture’s record-breaking price, it’s likely to become the centrepiece of the new owner’s collection, whether it’s showcased in a garage or a dedicated man cave.
