Along with all the fabulous cars, there's some fabulous art at Rétromobile too. These are our favorites from this year. Antoine Dufilho Metal SculpturesAntoine Dufilho’s great uncle collected Bugattis, which was perhaps the best way ever for a kid to be exposed to cars as art. Antoine later studied medicine, which also helped, he says. “Architectural studies then led him to a new approach to sculpture, particularly to the work of the framework, which, once exposed, reveals a succession of solid and void, bringing lightness and dynamism to the overall form,” his website says.The result is these unique and compelling studies of cars rendered in 3D. Hubert Poirot-BourdainThe work shown here covered most of the wall of Poirot-Bourdain’s booth at Rétromobile. Based in Le Mans, Hubert Poirot-Bourdain travels the world and brings back visual stories, his website says.“He plays with contrasts between black and color, and always infuses his drawings with a touch of poetry.”Michel Vaillant Art StripsThese fun, fast, and almost whimsical works are based on the comic/adventure strips penned by Michel Vaillant in the 1950s. All the drivers are handsome, all the cars are cool, and all the racetracks are fast. They look really nice blown up to wall-size. According to the artist, Thierry Boutsen, Hervé Poulain, and Luc Donckerwolke are all patrons.Patrick Buvat ModelsThis is a model of the Bentley that Tom Kristensen drove to victory at Le Mans in 2003. You can’t see it here from the terrible photo I was able to take through the plexiglass cover, but the detail is mind-numbing. It’s incredible to see. Buvat spends three days studying each car he makes, then five months building the model. This one was done so well that Kristensen himself bought it. The price was €24,000, or almost $29,000.

As a kid he’d cut photos from magazines and do paintings of them. He continues this approach now, starting with a photograph and then recreating it in great detail on canvas. His first work was a Ferrari Dino 206 SP. This photo, from the wall of his display at Rétromobile, is of a Grand Prix Lotus. The closer you look the more detail you see. “I paint exclusively from the photos I take at the track or at motor shows,” he told an interviewer. “This allows me to choose the point of view from which I want to make the portrait. Then, once I have completed the subject, I recreate the surrounding environment and finish off the car to hyper-realistic standards.”Jean-Marie CorreCorre works with acrylics on canvas and also watercolors. He paints historical scenes with vivid accuracy. This one at his booth was about three feet tall, showing a Ferrari 512 having just gone through Eau Rouge at Spa in the rain.
