A finger-painted Lambo was recently unveiled at the La Bullona in Milan. The EVO-spec Huracán features the work of Paolo Troilo, an artist who paints using his fingertips.
Troilo’s painting on the panels of the V10-powered supercar was dubbed “Minotauro,” and no, it’s not Big Nog’s face.
What you’ll see instead is a representation of the mythical creature: an amalgam of man and bull. Lamborghini says that the artwork is an expression of the dynamism, power, and innermost emotions that the artist experienced while driving the Huracán EVO.
“It was inspiring to meet Paolo Troilo and his artistic expressiveness. In our company, we are accustomed to art and the way it has always influenced our cars. However, when our product and the emotions it brings come together with the sensibilities of an artist like Troilo, something different and exceptionally unique like 'Minotauro' is created, and we are very proud of this,” said Automobili Lamborghini Marketing Director Christian Mastro.
The Minotauro Huracán EVO will be on display at Palazzo Serbelloni at Corso Venezia from November 4 to 13, 2021, along with Troilo’s other works. On November 16, 2021, the finger-painted Huracán EVO will be on display in Milan as part of the “Troilo-Milano Solo Andata” (Troilo-Milano One Way) exhibition, curated by Luca Beatrice.
“Time. I am enamored with the idea of slowness, and I have always championed it as a key to pleasure, culture, beauty, and success. But there are some encounters that change you,” explained Troilo.
He added, “seeing the Lamborghini Huracán EVO and trying it out suggested to me that there are also things capable of releasing the same energy with acceleration, with speed, with momentum. I heard the sound of the wind picking up as the space narrowed and time distorted: I felt a flowing wind and used it to paint on the muse itself, the inspiration of these emotions: the Huracán, my Minotauro.”
