ABOUT THE ARTIST
Johan Wedenstrom's interest in cars originates from his father, who had beautiful family cars like a Jaguar E-Type, Jaguar Mark X, Volvo 164 and others. Initially Johan started out as a graphic artist, but he soon realised that photography was his great passion. He has worked in the car industry for 20 years and his first customer was SAAB Cars in Sweden, where he was working for the PR-department. Pretty soon he was transferred to the studio for their sales catalogues, where he was offered to work with their high-end brand models. Based in Gothenburg, Sweden, Johan spends a lot of time travelling and photographing for both Swedish and international customers all over the world like Volvo Cars, Volvo LV/Trucks, Polestar, Volvo Ocean Race/Puma, Volvo Penta, Husqvarna Global, Husqvarna Construction, Sony Ericsson, IKEA and others. He received the Golden IAA, International Automotive Award in 2008.

ABOUT THIS COMMISSION
The Saab Aero-X is a concept car which was unveiled at the 2006 Salon International de l'Auto. It is powered by a 2.8-litre twin-turbocharged V6 running on pure ethanol that produces 400 bhp, accelerating it from 0-100km/h in 4.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 158 mph. It has a seven speed manual transmission controlled by paddles on the steering wheel. Like the later Saab Turbo X, the Aero X has four wheel drive. The doors and windscreen are connected, so instead of using conventional doors or even gullwing doors, it uses a cockpit canopy where the entire top section of the car is opened. This offers the Aero X's driver full 180 degree vision, and also facilitates entry and exit from its low slung cabin. The body is made of carbon fibre.
