The majority of Salvatore Erato's artwork stems
directly from a passion for auto racing and its
participants. His talents are multifaceted with works
both in paintings and sculptures that capture the
sport's essence. Indy cars, Formula Ones, Nascars and
sports cars, such as Porsches, Jaguars, Ferraris,
Lolas, Reynards, and many other classic automobiles.
The paintings and sculptures are so intricately
detailed that his work could be driven off walls and
onto racetracks. Using acrylics and airbrushing
techniques, both paintings and sculptures glean of a
blur that fuses motion and speed to many pieces.
Sculptures are made with a combination of wood, resin
and plastic.
Limited-edition prints also are available, such as
"Frequent Flyer," which features Michael Andretti at
the 1994 Indy Carnival race in Surfer's Paradise,
Australia. Each print is numbered and autographed by
Salvatore and Michael. Mr. Erato can be commissioned
to do original work and is receptive to project
proposals from all interested patrons. Take a long,
slow look at all of Erato's racy, fine automotive art
