FRANK KAYSER

The Techno Classica in Essen, Germany, is the world’s superlative classic trade fair. Also, this year, the fair came up with special exhibitions. It was a pleasure for me to show a selection of 20 of my large-format fine art motifs in a special exhibition at one of Manfred Hering’s EARLY 911 S’s most exclusive booths.
‚We Are The R Group‘. What could tempt you to wake up early on a Saturday morning and stand in the rain on a small sidestreet in front of a junkyard? For the members of the Porsche R Group such an event is a little bit about cars and a little more about the owners. Or as the ‚dictator‘ of the club, Chris Huergas, would say: „It`s the people, not the cars leave your ego behind“. Film and photo production for the Porsche customer magazine ‚Christophorus‘, the ‚Porsche Newsroom‘ and the ‚Porsche 9:11 Magazine‘.

Film and event documentary ›Porsche Rennsport Reunion‹ for Porsche Deutschland AG.
Exclusive special edition of the Porsche XXL book ‚Porsche Rennsport Reunion‘. These three words stand for the world’s largest meeting of historical Porsche racing cars with more than 60,000 visitors, at the Raceway Laguna Seca in California.

At the end of September, galleries and collectors turned the Shanghai Exhibition Center into the platform for the growing market for photographic art in the Asia-Pacific region for the fifth time. As part of a cooperation with the presenting partner Porsche, I had the opportunity to present fourteen of my motifs in a FineArt exhibition at the ‚Photofairs‘.

For this, 50,000 km had to be covered.
