Project

In 1975, Alexander Calder painted a BMW, thus creating the first derivative combining art and motor sport. By 2010, a further 15 cars had been turned into genuine works of art by renowned artists, with all these cars taking part in races. The BMW MES Pop Art Car exhibition on Lake Zurich featured not only six Art Cars, but also the new M-line models and the all-new i8. The select group of guests attending this invitation-only event included art lovers, celebrities, car buffs and dealers.
