“Retrovisiones’ por Pablo Buffagni
"Retrovisiones” es un proyecto muy personal que se fue desarrollando durante años. Incluye mi pasión por los autos, que arrancó de muy niño y se alimentó fuera y también dentro de la publicidad, gracias a la oportunidad de haber sido el líder creativo por mucho tiempo para Toyota, y el trabajo desarrollado para otras marcas como Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, Pontiac, Chevrolet, Mitsubishi, Renault y Ford. Mientras escribo estas líneas, estoy esperando por enésima vez que salga del taller mi viejo Jaguar, tapa del libro y mi auto por más de 23 años, famoso porque cuando llegué a USA lo pronunciaba “Shawer” y pensaban que me quería dar una ducha. Por Pablo Buffagni - President / Creative Director - BBQ Agency
