What does it take to create a BMW Art Car? 🎨 Swipe to explore the journey behind juliemehretu’s masterpiece, #ArtCar20.

“Its such an enormously collaborative project on all these levels: from the industrial designers, to the engineers; its all about creating dreams. It really is this form of creative thinking that i find instructive and captivating.” — Julie Mehretu

While developing the newest icon for the legendary #BMWArtCar Collection, Mehretu realized the design was right before her eyes. Her painting “Everywhen” (2021-23) seamlessly blended with the car’s body, embodying themes of the glitch, the blur, and the grid.

Stay tuned for #BMWArtCar20’s next stop.
