Brazilian pop artist Romero Britto was donated a Bentley Continental GT. What he did was paint the whole goddamned car with blue, purple, pink and other bright colours which could easily offend teh usual Bentley clientele who are prim, sophisticated and conservative. However, the very idea behind such colourful representations of art by pop artists is to shock the sensibilities of the bourgeoisie and make them think.
In my opinion, Britto’s work on the Continental GT is something that is awe inspiring and totally urban street chic. Britto will exhibit this car and other works in an upcoming exhibition Automobil Forum Unter den Linden in Germany from July 10 to September 6.
