If you find the fact that used automobiles once beloved almost as pets finish at scrapyards depressing, this article might have an uplifting effect on you but also on any art lover. Gallery of Steel Figures is located in the Polish city of Pruszków and it is a place where you can find dozens of sculptures built from scrap metal salvaged from a local scrapyard. So, the automobiles (and other machines made of metal) are getting their new life there in a way, this time as magnificent sculptures!
The latest sculptures exposed in this gallery are four iconic cars: Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, a Bugatti Veyron, a Maserati GranTurismo, and a Lamborghini Aventador. 50 artists over the last 5 years were working on these models and the result is impressive! All of these steel sculptures have functional doors and replica interiors, for example. If you think this place is worth checking, let’s just note that there you can also find sculptures of Transformers and other pop culture figures from TV and film. Awesome, right?!
