Nick Veasey 1972 Porsche 911 Targa For Sale

About this work

Nick Veasey has established himself as the foremost artist working with X-ray imaging, transforming industrial radiography into a medium of fine art over more than two decades. His work resides in major collections worldwide and has been exhibited extensively across institutions and public spaces, cementing his position as a singular voice in contemporary photography. Veasey's process requires specialized equipment and technical expertise that few possess, resulting in images that reveal the hidden architecture of everyday objects with scientific precision and unexpected beauty. The 1972 Porsche 911 Targa exemplifies Veasey's ongoing exploration of automotive subjects, a body of work that has proven particularly resonant with collectors. The 911 Targa, with its distinctive roll bar and removable roof panel, presents an ideal subject for X-ray examination—its air-cooled flat-six engine, suspension geometry, and mechanical components rendered in ethereal detail against a stark background. The resulting image strips away the familiar exterior to expose the engineering brilliance that made this model a benchmark of sports car design. There is an intimacy to seeing a vehicle laid bare in this manner, its bones and sinews made visible in ways conventional photography cannot achieve. Presented as a framed Chromaluxe print measuring 65.6 by 23.5 inches, this elongated format emphasizes the vehicle's elegant proportions while the metallic substrate lends luminosity and archival stability to the image. Issued in an edition of 25 with additional sizes available, the work offers accessibility while maintaining the exclusivity collectors expect.
