Russelltovey and Robertdiament interview JulieMehretu during the process for planning and creating
#BMWArtCar20. To design
#artcar20, Mehretu translates her signature multi-layered motifs onto the contours of the
#BMWMHybridV8. Masked photographs, dotted grids, neon-coloured spray paint and her iconic gestural markings create abstract visual forms across the body of the car.
Mehretu’s collaboration with BMW goes beyond the Art Car. Julie Mehretu and Mehret Mandefro (drmehret), Emmy-nominated producer, writer and co-founder of the Realness Institute which aims to strengthen the media ecosystem across Africa, will host a series of gatherings across Africa in 2025 to create space for artists to meet, exchange, and collaborate in translocal ways.
