My name is Jacek Kołodziejski. I am a photographer and visual artist. With the Evviva L’auto brand, my two greatest passions have collided: a love for art and design, and an absolute obsession with automotive culture.
It all began when, at the age of 14, I read Kazimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer’s poem “Evviva l’arte!”. The poet’s manifesto, which elevates art to an almost divine value, made such a strong impression on me that I spray-painted a two-meter-wide slogan with that phrase in my parents’ basement. Even then, I knew what I wanted to do in life — become an artist.
After years of a successful photographic career and numerous exhibitions, the time came to merge these two worlds. For a long time, I wondered how to personalize a car without interfering with its structure. The solution came from the world of fashion — a “garment” for the car: artist- and designer-created covers produced in limited editions (up to 35 pieces per design).
We present three collections. Evviva L’auto is a manifesto of personalization without compromise. Each design is accompanied by dedicated merchandise, allowing you to carry a piece of this design with you at all times — for example, on your T-shirt.
All covers are created through a creative process. We launch the first collection in collaboration with Studio OSOM. It is there that one of Poland’s most exciting designers and graphic artists creates — Bartek Walczuk.
All patterns are handcrafted and uncompromising. The overall effect evokes controlled chaos: graphic energy “wrapped” around an icon of engineering, highlighting the dialogue between artistic wildness and technical precision.
Our covers are designed and sewn in Poland, using the highest-quality fabrics.
