Icelandic artist Olfafur Eliasson made this mesh out of ice to cover the hydrogen-powered BMW. As soon as the refridgerator gets turned off the sculpture melts, revealing the car.

Of Jürgen Pander</b>
The lacquer becomes the canvas, the body the sculpture: Kind Car artists transform cars into true masterpieces. In the series of the same name of BMW a straight icy exhibit of the Isländers Olafur Eliasson develops - and AUDI lets a RS4 von Romero Britto paint.
On the kind Chicago, the most steeped in tradition US fair for modern and contemporary art, showed AUDI for the first time "kind a Car", one of the Brazilian Popkünstler Romero Britto painted sedan of the type RS4. Britto explained, it wanted with its organization both the driving fun, expressed which dynamics and the innovation of the vehicle. "Therefore I have as motive for haven-guess myself/advise a woman decided", explain Britto. The lady smiles friendly with a bang-red mouth by the hood, under which a brachialer V8-Motor with 420 HP rumort.
AUDI uses kind the Car naturally also for marketing purposes. First the car goes on a route through large US cities. Then Quarterback Tom Brady will be allowed to drive the merrily painted AUDI from the Superbowl Gewinnerteam Indianapolis Colts as the first. And finally the car in Miami is auctioneered in favor of the obstruction relief organization "Best Buddies". Co-operation with the donation is to be developed - among other things by one of Britto painted SUV Q7, which will be introduced in October. Recently Romero Britto by the way already painted a Volvo V50, which was likewise sold on an auction in favor of of "Best Buddies" to an art friend.
The fact that AUDI lets a car of an artist paint at one time and the whole then "kind calls Car" encounters with BMW "surprise", as BMW culture Kommunikator Thomas Girst expresses it. Because kind Cars are for decades like that something like a brand name of the residents of Munich autofarmer. Already at the beginning of the seventies had its racing car, BMW 3,0 CSL, painted the French running driver Hervé Poulain by the friendly artist Alexander Calder and started with the 24-Stunden-Rennen von Le Mans.
Be-get, to Stella and light stone created kind Cars
It was the beginning its that BMW calls in the meantime "kind Car Collection", because so far took care of altogether 15 artists most different models of the white-blue mark, among them Andy be-gets, franc Stella, Roy light stone, David Hockney, A.R. Penck and Jenny Holzer.
At present that originates in to 16. Kind Car of BMW, for which the Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson was selected by an international curator committee. The basis for Eliassons mobile sculpture forms the hydrogen record vehicle H2R. During a first presentation in past July Eliasson showed a car veiled by a grid network from ice in its citizen of Berlin studio. The Clou of this installation is it, the work of art, as soon as the cooling units are turned off, completely slowly dissolves and nothing as water remaining remains - a reference to the hydrogen drive.
The world premiere of the youngest BMW kind Cars of Eliasson is planned for 5 September. On this day museum OF decaying kind opens a Olafur Eliasson retrospective in San Francisco, in whose framework the mysterious ice car is for the first time publicly shown."</i>
