Cadillac in collaboration with Arnet recently unveiled a curated photo series during Frieze LA that celebrated the haute automotive brand’s bespoke Goddess Emblem first appearing on Cadillac in 1930, when it exclusively adorned its V-16 models. It now returns on the all-new Cadillac CELESTIQ ultra-luxury EV on the front quarter panel of the CELESTIQ and within the multi-function controller on the center console. The latter is composed of a combination of real metal and glass, housing the Goddess emblem in it.

The photo series, titled the ‘Goddess Collection’ features work from photographers, Ming Smith, Petra Collins, and Dannielle Bowan, interpretating Cadillac’s celestial symbol, and their interpretations of what the word ‘Goddess’ means to them. The results are stunning photos and creative depictions of femininity. All photos will be auctioned on Artnet’s platform until March 1, with proceeds supporting Free Arts NYC.
