Book excerpt: "Automobile and Culture" is replete with dazzling color photographs of great and humble cars, and is brimming with hundreds of paintings, sculptures, and posters. Astonishing in its scope and beauty, it moves from the first elaborate spring-driven vehicles conceived by Leonardo da Vinci to the auto-related works and dogma of the Futurists to the car imagery of the Surrealists, Dadaists, Pop artists, and Photo-Realists, and provides fascinating commentary on the continuing role of the automobile in art.
