Audi RS 4 is the most recent project of Britto and being a car enthusiast
himself he always love the idea of creating art cars. Britto said, "For
the Audi RS 4, I wanted to create something that would combine sophistication,
dynamism and fun on one hand, but also include the aspect of a future

why I came to choose the portrait of a woman as it incorporates all these
attributes."
