Fifty artists from around the globe have teamed up to create replicas of cars from recycled scrap metal, gearboxes, motors, chains and crankshafts found in a scrap yard in Pruszków, Poland, for an exhibit entitled Gallery Figures Steel. This collection of sculptures includes replicas of luxury cars, such as Bugatti Veyron, Mercedes-Benz, Lamborghini Aventador, Fiat 500 and Maserati GranTurismo, that are carefully designed to include every detail from the actual car models. 

The artists plan on opening another gallery in Poland, with a global expansion to follow. In late 2017, Gallery Figures Steel will also make an appearance at the Motor Show in Dubai. 

Here, Waste360 showcases a selection of the recycled sculptures.
