VW disassembled .// Cosmic Thing, 2002.// Volkswagen Beetle 1983.//

This is a gray Volkswagen Beetle, the old kind, suspended from the gallery's ceiling by high-test aircraft cables. Gone, however, are the Bug’s familiar humps and compact form. Damián Ortega has meticulously disassembled the car, evidently taking the VW ideology of user-friendliness at its word. Each part has been hung in an exaggerated constellation of doors, engine block, axles, wheels, upholster, and frame so that the whole looks blown out, all frozen motion and volume diagrammed in steel.

Honda F1 "View Suspended": The ultimate technical diagram

View Suspended is a stunning art installation created from the thousands of parts that make up a Honda Racing F1 car. The amazing display was created especially for the British International Motor Show by Dutch artist Paul Veroude. Each of the 3200 parts of the Formula 1 car are suspended on fine wires to produce a 3D 'exploded diagram' that allows race fans the chance to get closer than ever to the engineering secrets of the world's most technically-advanced sport.
