CL RECOMMENDS

CL Critic Kevin C. Madigan Recommends: This four-month exhibition at the Savoy focuses on iconic “muscle” cars equipped with the titular mammoth motors under the hood. “The American muscle car era lasted over a decade of popular flexing with serious horsepower,” the museum’s blurb says. “Manufacturers were not shy about increased engine size and power, from Chevrolet’s Chevelle to the Buick GSX and Ford Shelby GT500, all ranging from the late 1960s to the early 1970s.” This haven for gearheads has an impressive lineup of events throughout the year with showcases of “woodie’ station wagons, art deco coachbuilders, Pirelli’s 150-year history, Indy 500 roadsters, screenings of movies such as Bullitt and Ford vs. Ferrari, and the like. The Savoy is the latest entity to join the nonprofit group that operates the Tellus, the Bartow and the Booth Western Art museums in Georgia. — KCM

From the venue:

Big Blocks, an exhibition on display from August 2, 2022, through December 4, 2022, in Gallery A, will showcase American muscle cars with “big-block” engines housed under the hood. The American muscle car era lasted over a decade of popular flexing with serious horsepower. Popular American car manufacturers were not shy about increased engine size and power, from Chevrolet’s Chevelle to the Buick GSX, and Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, all ranging from the late 1960s to the early 1970s.
