SPIRIT OF COUNTACH x identity

Lamborghini Abu Dhabi & Dubai’s commissioned masterpiece, the ‘Spirit of Countach,’ is now a standout exhibit at the prestigious Automobili Lamborghini Museum in Italy. The commissioned masterpiece, the ‘Spirit of Countach,’ proudly created by local artist Sasan Nasernia to celebrate Lamborghini’s 60th anniversary, is now a standout exhibit at the museum.

Commissioned in March 2023, the ‘Spirit of Countach’ perfectly encapsulates Lamborghini’s design ethos, blending iconic lines, boldness, and performance. Nasernia’s artwork incorporates intricate calligraphic forms inspired by ancient Arabic calligraphy and arabesque patterns from Islamic architecture. Nasernia skillfully interweaves these elements with the silhouette of the Lamborghini Countach, creating a mesmerizing illusion of the car in mid-air and enhancing the piece’s spiritual and enigmatic aura.

This showcase transforms the House of Sant’Agata Bolognese into a “diffused museum,” celebrating 60 years of Lamborghini’s innovation, design, and integration into local cultures worldwide. Each artwork commissioned by Lamborghini showrooms across the globe adds a unique cultural perspective to the brand’s legacy.
