Lamborghini Launches Exclusive Space Key NFT with Fabian Oefner

Introduction

Remember a few days ago we told you about Lamborghini’s exclusive Space Key containing carbon fibre that went to the Space station? Now, the Italian carmaker, in association with NFTPRO™, has launched it as an NFT, joining companies like Nike and Samsung in embracing NFT technology.

Details of the NFT

When we wrote the original article, we didn’t know about what the QR codes linked to. Now we do know that the five QR codes will take one to a series of five photographs of a Lamborghini Aventador Ultimae.

Artistic Collaboration

The piece of art the Space Key leads to is made by artist Fabian Oefner, who has captured all the elements of the Ultimae to create a jaw-dropping piece of art. The artist is renowned for producing artworks that are fictional yet appear remarkably real.

While creating the art piece, Oefner worked in a makeshift photographic studio right next to the production line at the Lamborghini Factory in Sant’Agata Bolognese.

Auction Details

The Space Key will now be going under the hammer at RM Sotheby's between 1st February, the first day of the new lunar year, and 4th February. However, the auction for the first of the five NFTs will take place on nft.lamborghini.com. Each auction will last for 75 hours and 50 minutes, which is the exact time it took Apollo 11 to leave Earth and enter the moon's orbit.
