"The BMW Art Car World Tour has appeared at major museums around the globe since September 2006. Now it is arriving in Los Angeles for a limited-engagement, two-week visit.
We invite you to view four classic BMW Art Cars, each painted by one of the greatest painters of the 20th century – Andy Warhol, Frank Stella, Robert Rauschenberg and Roy Lichtenstein.
The beautiful grounds of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art provide the perfect backdrop for these “rolling sculptures.”
Dates: February 12 – 24, 2009
Location: Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA)
5905 Wilshire Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA
About BMW Art Cars
The idea of the BMW Art Car was born in 1975, when art auctioneer and racing driver Herv? Poulain entered the 24-hour Le Mans race for the first time. Seeking a link between the worlds of art and racing, Poulain asked his friend, artist Alexander Calder, to paint his 480-hp BMW 3.0 CSL. The result was so remarkable, BMW decided to continue this collaboration. Today there are 16 BMW Art Cars by prominent artists, from 10 countries spanning five continents."
