BMW Art Cars @ LACMA

xbook · 02-15-2009, 07:23 PM

Hiya all,

My girlfriend, a friend of ours, and myself went down to the LA County Museum of Art to see the BMW Art Car Exhibit. Here is some info about it:

BMW Art Cars

The 4 cars present were:
3.0 CSL by Frank Stella 1976
320i by Roy Lichtenstein 1977
635 CSi by R. Rauschen 1986
M1 by Andy Warhol 1979

And here they are:

Cool. Thanks for sharing! Seen a couple of them already when they were on display at the BMW Zentrum in SC.

Gotta say all of them look bad ass, except the 635. The 635 art car just looks cheezy to me. However, I'd love to take out that 320 Imsa car for a day on the track....that thing would be a blast...so raw and direct.

Nice pics. I was there monday to check them out

The Cold War Germany Exhibit is pretty good too.

Glad everyone enjoyed these pictures. Too bad the show is over here in LA, and it's now off to another city.

Have a great day!!
