Mini enthusiasts worldwide are well-acquainted with the name John Cooper, a luminary in the history of BMC, the manufacturer of the iconic Mini. Renowned for his achievements in Formula 1 and his introduction of rear-engine racing cars, John Cooper collaborated with legendary pilots such as Jack Brabham, Stirling Moss, and Bruce McLaren. Under his guidance, Cooper's racing cars secured sixteen Grand Prix medals in F1, along with championship victories in 1959 and 1960. However, his genius truly shines in the creation of the legendary Mini Cooper.

This Mini Cooper S art print pays a tribute to the exceptional engineering prowess of John Cooper. His friendship with Alec Issigonis, the designer of the original Mini, set the stage for an extraordinary collaboration. While Issigonis initially doubted the compact vehicle's potential as a performance car, Cooper's persuasion led to the birth of the Cooper in 1961. With an increased engine power from 34 to 55 hp, it triumphed in the British Saloon Car Championship that very year, repeating the victory in 1962, 1969, 1978, and 1979.



 

The Mini Cooper S demonstrated its prowess in rally conditions, clinching victories in the British Rally Championship in 1962, 1963, and 1979, the European Rally Championship in 1965 and 1966, and the Finnish Rally Championship.

Notably, the Mini Cooper achieved legendary status with four consecutive wins in the Monte Carlo Rally in 1964, 1965, and 1967, culminating in a remarkable 1-2-3 finish in 1966. Despite disqualification in 1966 due to technical issues with the headlamp, the BMC garnered even more press coverage, proving the adage that there's no such thing as bad publicity.

Born and raised in Poland, my lifelong passion for cars and automobile design led me to study Transportation Design at Pforzheim University in Germany. Since graduation, I've worked as a freelance designer for esteemed clients in the automobile industry, including Qoros Auto, Bentley Motors, and Mercedes-Benz AMG. During my studies, I had the privilege of a year-long internship and Master Thesis project at the Porsche Advanced Design Studio in Weissach.

This transformative experience fulfilled my dream of professional car design and equipped me with extensive knowledge for future projects. I believe that understanding the rich heritage and history of automobiles is crucial for shaping the vehicles of tomorrow. Inspired by classic cars that mark significant milestones in automotive development, I express my passion through a series of digital sketches. Each artwork aims to capture the unique character of these influential cars, experimenting with colors and techniques to enhance their defining features. I
