In the summer of 2007, as part of the initiative to open thirty new branches in Italy, Deutsche Bank commissioned the American artist John Divola to do a photo shoot on ten Italian cities. Divola would have been the first of three artists from three different continents. That summer, Divola even shot in twelve different cities in the country. Once he returned home, nothing further came of it: Deutsche Bank abandoned the project due to the serious economic crisis that had occurred in the meantime. The work created by Divola for the German bank was never presented. However, something remained: in parallel with the commission, the author had photographed the cars. Thus was born the series presented in this small, very limited edition volume.
