BMW Cars of Art at Los Angeles Museum Exhibit
April 5th, 2009 Posted in Art, BMWThe world renowned art cars of BMW were the highlights at The Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
Among the art cars that were featured consist of Frank Stella’s graph-paper 3.0 CSL and Roy Lichtenstein’s 1977 Group 5 320i with its amazing and rowdy wing and body works. Aside from that, the exhibit will also feature Robert Rauschenburg’s 1986 6-series BMW and the 1979 Group 4 M1 in which the famous Andy Warhol had flourished with his amazing paint job techniques.
These legends that marked automotive history raced with sophistication with their new looks courtesy of the Le Mans. The Robert Rauschenburg’s 1986 6-series was not really a sports car. It just carries a conventional style with a compressed work on its features.
These art cars will be put into exhibit in different locations in a given limited time and the abovementioned cars will always be welcoming the location’s entrance steps. First, these cars were placed at the BP entrance of the museum on Wilshire Boulevard. The exhibit was for free.
From March 24 to April 26 of this year, the cars will be moved from Los Angeles to Grand Central Station. Then from this station, they will head to their next destination to Mexico which will cover three cities for their display.
According to BMW, they have just released 16 cars for this exhibit. They actually intended to give out 17 and is looking for an artist to make some works.
