Thomas SCHORN photographed the global launch campaign of the HANKOOK iON tires. Together with Hankook Creative Lead Lars Heberer, several assets including a film have been produced at sunny Lake Como. Unlike the usual focus on cold technology, this time, emotional driving pleasure is front and center.
Specially developed for electric vehicles, this tire family is marked not only by high performance but also by a considerably stronger sidewall, which compensates the higher weight of modern EVs, as well as notably lower rolling-noise characteristics and higher resilience.
As one of the world’s leading original equipment manufacturers of electric vehicles from premium car brands, the Hankook development engineers have already documented their expertise in this demanding segment many times over. Original equipment tires from Hankook optimized for electro-mobility are already being used by Audi, BMW, Porsche, VW and other leading brands.

Art and performance, a symbiosis which hardly any other automobile manufacturer brings together with such elegance as Aston Martin. THOMAS SCHORN photographed the special on the ASTON MARTIN Vantage for Aston Martin Lagonda of Europe and staged a powerful world in which art builds an emotional bridge to performance.
“The focus is on artist Benjamin Rayher, who processes his experiences with the wild cat from carmaker Astin Martin in turn wildly in an untamed manner, and brings the result onto the screen,” photographer Thomas Schorn tells GoSee.
As a student of Prof. Markus Lüpertz and Prof. Siegfried Anzinger at the Düsseldorf Art Academy as well as a student at the School of Visual Arts in New York, he draws inspiration from portraits. He stages characters who fascinate him – mainly from film, travels, or his friends – in his very own way. To this end, he has developed his own genre of art over the years, metarealism, which is an amalgamation of various different movements.
Aston Martin Lagonda was the name of multiple sedans sold by British sports car manufacturer Aston Martin between fall 1974 and summer 1989. Three different models of the Aston Martin Lagonda were offered over the course of around fifteen years, with a total of 660 vehicles built.
