BMW Art Car # 11 - 1991 Z1 by A. R. Penck
“Art on art, art on technology — that interested me, especially on a three-dimensional object,” Penck said on the invitation to craft an Art Car. The technological masterpiece that so fascinated Penck was BMW’s quirky and innovative 1991 Z1. With its electric doors that opened downwards, the Z1 was certainly unique — even without a customized paint scheme.

Before setting a single brush to the Z1, Penck already believed the car was art, the living reflection of BMW’s engineering vision. The technological innovations incorporated on the roadster — including the doors and the easily swappable body panels — were what inspired the artist when he finally did start on his project.

Penck’s Z1 is a lot like ancient cave art — in fact, it portrays a caveman with the various technological innovations available to mankind in that era. Using the tools shown on the hood, the caveman may have been able to slay several of the animals positioned on the car for sustenance.
