Happy 8th birthday to BMW Art Car
#19 by contemporary art genius John Baldessari 🟡 🔵
The BMW M6 GTLM was painted by Baldessari in California in 2016. Considered an American master of concept art, Baldessari ironically played with the multiple dimensions of the race car as a piece of art. “I like ambiguity and play between three dimensions and two dimensions.” A true minimalist, Baldessari exclusively used red, blue, yellow and green for his palette. “You can say, the BMW Art Car is definitely a typical Baldessari and the fastest artwork I ever created!” With “FAST” as a central typographic element of the car, the artist made his racecar visually accessible for viewers both at the race track and the museum.
