Ferencz Olivier at the Classic Expo Salzburg 2015

In the beautiful city of Salzburg, Austria´s biggest vintage car trade fair, the Classic Expo Salzburg, will open its gates for its 11^th holding, from 16^th till 18^th October 2015. Due to the positive experiences, I have already decided to exhibit again at this trade fair event for vintage car-fans, well-known traders, automobile clubs and classic cars. 

The increased interest in this event is also reflected by the additional exhibition area in the Trade Fair Centre Salzburg, that has been increased to a total of 40.000sqm. A further novelty: for the highlights of this year´s programme, the entire Hall 1 will be provided as a separate hall. 

In Hall 1 a special exhibition is dedicated to the prestigious brand "Jaguar", which is going to celebrate its 80^th anniversary, here. Among others, a model of the D-Type-Series will be exhibited, which made the 3^rd place in the 24-hours race of Le Mans in 1957. 

Another special exhibition in Hall 1 with the title “50 Years Beatles in Salzburg“ is going to commemorate the 13^th March 1965, when the probably most famous band of the world arrived at Salzburg Airport and gave a press conference and to shoot the winter-scenes for the famous Beatles-film “Help“ during the further course of their visit, which lasted until 22^nd March 1965. On the occasion of this 50^th anniversary, photographs by Christian Skrein will be exhibited, as well as original instruments. 

Just like in previous years, there will also be an exhibition of historical operational vehicles and the popular "Salt & Oil Rallye", which, for a "rallye-feeling like 60 years ago", has chosen the trade fair centre of Salzburg as start and finish. 

In Hall 9, the Dorotheum, one of Europe´s biggest auction houses, will auction selected exhibits over the two days of the weekend. Next to exclusive vintage cars, also round about 25 Pinzgauer, the Austrian off-road vehicles, will go under the hammer in a special auction. 

This time, I will present 12 of my works in my 42 sqm stall Stand in Hall 10. On the one hand, I am going to take a selection from my 2014-painting series from the project „Racing Sports Legends – Le Mans" with me, on the other hand, I will exhibit diverse artworks of my recent painting series "Brand Epochs – Automobiles". Fitting to the special exhibition on the occasion of the 80^th anniversary of the brand Jaguar, of course, the artwork “Brand Epochs – Automobiles-Jaguar is going to be in on it as well.
