Fine Art Shippers’ Emblematic “Da Race on Wheels” Van Goes for Sale

Art can take different forms, depending on how far an artist’s creative imagination can take it. Fine Art Shippers, an art logistics company based in New York, has always been at the forefront of promoting art and contributing to its visibility and accessibility to audiences. That’s how the “Da Race on Wheels” van, a unique art project created in collaboration with the renowned artist Mitchell Schorr, has become a one-of-a-kind object pushing the boundaries of street art.

This summer, Fine Art Shippers has made a decision to sell its emblematic art van and give it a new life. A tribute to artistic freedom and a valuable piece of Mitchell Schorr’s “Da Race” series, this iconic movable art object will embellish any collection of contemporary art.

Philosophy Behind the Project

The “Da Race on Wheels” van used to be a Red Cross vehicle and later a shuttle running across states to deliver valuable art objects. In 2021, Fine Art Shippers partnered with Mitchell Schorr, a famous American artist and the company’s friend, to create a unique project that would take street art to a whole new level and bring a new meaning to art logistics. This is when a regular Mercedes Sprinter van turned into an unusual medium for Schorr’s iconic “Da Race” series, becoming part of a large collection of art that can be found in all corners of the globe, from New York to Hong Kong.

Since then, “Da Race on Wheels” has been a vibrant, recognizable element of the Fine Art Shippers brand and living evidence of the artist’s ability to set art on the move and expand the geography of its outreach.

The Digital Life of “Da Race on Wheels”

Another vital milestone in the life of this unique artwork created by Fine Art Shippers and Mitchell Schorr was its digitalization. Soon after its creation, “Da Race on Wheels” was turned into an NFT that was available for purchase on OpenSea. This move, which was timely in the epoch of the NFT craze, solidified the company’s desire to extend the boundaries of art ownership and access.

 

Now, after several years of work as an art shuttle, “Da Race on Wheels” goes for sale, which gives everyone an opportunity to acquire not just a van but a piece of art with a remarkable story and philosophy behind it.
