My car joins a tradition of BMW art cars
Sep 20th, 2007 by Brad
After getting my art car, I’ve been hearing more and more about the art cars. I found this bit about the making of the 1997 Andy Warhol BMW art car. It also has footage from the 1979 24 hours of Le Mans where it came in 6th. “I tried to portray speed pictorially. If a car is moving really quickly, all the lines and colors are blurred,” Andy Warhol.
And if you want to see an even slicker madison-avenue-BMW ad on BMW art cars you can see it below:
It gives glimpses of these works:
Alexander Calder
