OVERVIEW
Claude Nahum was brought up surrounded by all things automotive. The son
of Bernar Nahum, considered to be the father of the Turkish automotive industry,
Claude was fascinated by cars and engineering from an early age. Claude’s
career led him into automotive design, research and engineering, before
eventually heading and growing the Kiraça group trading company in Europe,
all the while maintaining his link with the automotive world. As Claude’s career
progressed, he began collecting and racing cars, and the growth of his stable
led to him establishing The N Collection. Wishing to create a distinctive tribute
to his favourite cars, Claude commissioned six leading artists, and gave them
free rein to depict each of 25 cars from his collection in their own inimitable
style.
The Automotive Art Project showcases that work.
