Complete Ltd swaps lunchtime in the park for the car park

A hot & sunny lunchtime on Leonard Street and Complete Ltd swap a sit down and a sandwich in the park for a browse around a car park. Are we mad?….

Probably yes, but our reason for trawling around Great Eastern Street Car Park on one of the hottest days of the year was to view a pop-up exhibition presented by The ICA.  ART DRIVE! is the first ever showing of  BMW’s unique collection of ART CARS in the UK. The Collection, initiated over 35 years ago, consists of BMW cars transformed into artworks by leading international artists, using the form of the car as their canvas. The stunning works of german engineering fused with the beauty of modern art, range from 1975 models to a 2010 model customised by american artist, Jeff Koons. Other collaborators include David Hockney, Roy Lichtenstein, Cesar Manrique and Andy Warhol.
