This year, Automobili Lamborghini celebrates its 60th anniversary and to mark such a significant year, Lamborghini and Japanese contemporary artist IKEUCHI have joined creative forces for an avant-garde artistic collaboration. Inspired by the 60th-anniversary tagline “The future began in 1963”, this joint project was named “Chasing the Future” and it encompasses the Time Gazer and the Huracán STO Time Chaser_111100. These projects explore the common themes shared by Lamborghini and IKEUCHI, namely the concepts of “time” and “timelessness”.
Automobili Lamborghini’s 180 dealers in 53 different countries organized cross-sectional projects for which different markets will cooperate with internationally renowned artists to celebrate its 60th anniversary. This first Japanese collaboration will be presented In Tokyo together with IKEUCHI. The artist draws inspiration from cyberpunk and robot anime and combines plastic models with industrial product parts.
Built using original Lamborghini parts, the Time Gazer is a large-scale art piece that encapsulates IKEUCHI’s vision of past, present and future through the lens of Lamborghini’s evolution.
The Lamborghini Huracán STO Time Chaser_111100 is a one-of-a-kind limited edition that expresses IKEUCHI’s theme of cybernetics and Lamborghini’s historic 60 years encompassing the shared values of breaking the rules of the past through creative and authentic expression. The influence of Lamborghini’s heritage on this one-off is remarked by the clear references to the launch colors of the previous anniversary models and by using 111100, the binary code for the number 60, in the naming itself.
Taking inspiration from the rich legacy of Lamborghini, for these creations IKEUCHI used original parts from previous anniversary models such as Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary, Lamborghini Diablo SE30, Lamborghini Murciélago 40th Anniversary, and Lamborghini Aventador LP-720-4 50th Anniversary. Combining these parts and other elements, IKEUCHI interpreted the Huracan STO in his signature futuristic cyber-industrial style.
