Members View: ART DRIVE!

BMW ART DRIVE! Opens today!

We are holding a very special ICA Members’ View on Thursday 2 August, 7-9pm at the Great Eastern Street Car Park, Shoreditch, London, EC2A 3ER. RSVP to membership@ica.org.uk by 27th July to reserve a space for you and a guest.

This pop-up exhibition is an exciting collaboration with BMW and London 2012 Festival which brings the BMW Art Car Collection to the UK for the first time. The ICA is working with emerging names in design from the east end to create a unique project, including Julia, Loop.pH and My Beautiful City.

And, today at 12:30, ICA Members are also invited to a free preview screening of Eames – The Architect and The Painter, a striking documentary which takes a detailed look at American designer Charles Eames.

See you there!

    Absolute amazing cars, every single one. It was very well presented, simple yet brilliantly effective.The cars were displayed in their “natural” urban car park environment (as opposed to an enclosed museum). I also appreciated the juxtaposition of the colours popping out of the austere grey surroundings.

    Here’s all 16 cars at the show: Youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SZVGYGtBBUEnjoy!In order of video appearance (Top floor to 1st floor):1) V12 LMR by Jenny Holzer2) 3.0 CSL by Alexander Calder3) 535i by Matazo Kayama4) 730i by Cesar Manrique5) 3.0 CSL by Frank Stella6) 320 CSi by Roy Lichtenstein7) M1 by Andy Warhol8) 635 CSi by Robert Rauschenberg9) M3 by M.J.
