The BMW Art Car #20 by Julie Mehretu. Dynamism within a form. Her exploration of space, energy, and motion transforms into a three-dimensional racing masterpiece. This Art Car challenges conventional boundaries, embodying invention and imagination in a “performative painting” that takes the concept of dynamic art to the next level. @juliemehretu @bmwgroupculture #BMWArtCar #JulieMehretu #BMWGroupCulture | BMW Group Culture

Today we’re excited to share that Julie Mehretu, a world renowned Ethiopian-American artist and activist, has created an incredible piece of art that will have a prominent place on the outside – and inside – of the Obama Presidential Center. I think Julie’s installation, titled “Uprising of the Sun,” will be one of the most important aspects of the Center and an iconic contribution to the South Side and the city of Chicago. Michelle and I can’t wait for you to see it. | Barack Obama
