Whoever chooses an AC tractor shares
a working philosophy with research in
terms of performance, comfort, safety,
versatility, savings and productivity at
its core. These are objectives that lead
to choices being made that sometimes
break the rules (…”rebels”?). They are
natural and easy choices for those
able to look beyond the standard
response. Here come the stars of the
AC 2014 Calendar Collection “ Rebel
Boys”, young and valorous AC Friends
(participants of the “Become a Star”
Competition.) immortalised by the
company photographer Oriano Stefan,
brilliant at faithfully portraying each
testimonial, every one with a different
personality. The publication offers a
new, edgy graphic design in line with
the calendar’s “Rebel” theme, pleasing
for its richness and for the variety
of elements included, that render
the picture for each month new and
different.
Rebel Tractors, Rebel Boys
“The Rebel is the individual, the CONCRETE man
that reacts to a CONCRETE circumstance. To know
what is right, he doesn’t need theories or laws
thought up by the justice system. The rebel draws
from sources that are not yet dispersed within
the institutions. Thus, because everything in him
retains its purity, everything becomes SIMPLE.”
(Ernst Jünger, Portrait of a Rebel, 1952)

Der Waldgang > At the beginning of the 1950s, at the breaking dawn of globalisation,
Ernst Jünger, the German philosopher and Goethe prize winner in 1980, elaborated the
“Portrait of a Rebel” figure as corresponding to an individual being hunted by a social
order that desired a capillary control and to which he tried to escape by“passing into the
forest” (the original title in German is, in fact, “Der Waldgang” = Retreat into the forest).
The Rebel doesn’t feel he belongs anywhere and“crosses the zero meridian with his own
forces”. Unbridled anger concentrates itself in this figure that battles in the name of what
is prized most by the individual: freedom.
