MOTOR VILLAGE MARYLEBONE HOSTS FAMOUS PHOTOGRAPHER’S EXHIBITION


Motor Village UK, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles’ flagship dealer showroom, has once again been chosen as the venue for a top exhibition, this time a display from famed photographer Terry O’Neill.

The Wigmore Street, London site, which is usually home to FCA’s range of Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Abarth and Jeep cars, was converted last night (21 April) into a gallery and drinks reception for Terry O’Neill’s vernissage. The preview, in partnership with Ransom Gallery and Monica Colussi, was an opportunity to focus on the Alfa range, in particular the new Alfa Giulietta.

Terry O’Neill is one of the world’s most collected photographers – his work hangs in national art galleries and private collections worldwide. For more than six decades, he has photographed the greats from music, film and politics, including Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandela, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Amy Winehouse, Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot, and every James Bond actor from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig.

Motor Village UK was chosen because of its central London position and unique design and space. Situated just off Oxford Street, the showroom was originally created in 2008 with future exhibitions, displays and receptions in the plans, as well as the ability to showcase and sell cars.

“We were delighted to host this venue with the legendary Terry O’Neill at our unique showroom, transformed into an art gallery for the night,” says Fabio di Prima, managing director, Motor Village UK.

“It was an opportunity to present many of the cars from the FCA line-up, but mainly the Alfa Romeo range, with the spectacular 4C and, for the first time at Motor Village UK, the new Giulietta. The stunning design of many of Terry O’Neill’s pictures linked perfectly with the beauty of the Alfa Romeo cars.”

Terry O’Neill’s exhibition runs at Motor Village UK until 22 May.
