Abstracte kunst geïnspireerd door de taal van de auto beleeft momenteel een duidelijke opmars in galerijen, musea en veilinghuizen. In mei werd de 20ste BMW Art Car van Julie Mehretu – een abstracte bekleding afkomstig van haar gelaagde schilderijen – onthuld in het Centre Pompidou, voordat hij in juni deelnam aan de 24 Uur van Le Mans. Dit trok ontwerp-liefhebbers naar een kunstcontext. Tegelijkertijd meldden veilinghuizen een constante interesse voor auto-geïnspireerde abstracties, van verknipte carrosserie-sculpturen tot minimalistische "motorkap"-werken, wat suggereert dat er een blijvende aantrekkingskracht is voor verzamelaars van zowel kunst als motorsportontwerpen.

In het Centre Pompidou eind mei hebben curatoren de BMW M Hybrid V8 van Julie Mehretu gepresenteerd als een bewegend canvas, met studies, maquettes en pigmenttests naast de voltooide auto. De expositie benadrukte hoe haar gevectoriseerde markeringen en vage velden zich vertalen naar complexe krommingen en raceklare laminaat, zonder de schilderachtige energie te verliezen. Vervolgens reisde het werk in juni naar het Circuit de la Sarthe voor Le Mans, waardoor de tentoonstelling zich uitbreidde naar de publieke ruimte en een zeldzame feedbacklus tussen het circuit en de witte kubus benadrukte. De veiling in het voorjaar in New York en Londen gaf extra context aan de markt voor auto-abstractie.

Grote huizen hebben de auto-assemblages van John Chamberlain en de Hood-schilderijen van Richard Prince uit de late jaren '80 met veel concurrentie geveild, grotendeels binnen de geschatte prijsklassen. Specialisten merkten op dat er interesse was vanuit verschillende hoeken, zowel van designverzamelaars als autoliefhebbers, en benadrukten dat de staat en herkomst cruciaal blijven voor topresultaten. Het thema kwam dit jaar ook terug in enquêtes en permanente tentoonstellingen. De retrospectieve van Frank Stella bij Fondation Beyeler, die liep tot de vroege zomer van 2024, belichtte abstracties met titels gerelateerd aan racetracks die snelheid, techniek en seriële vorm met elkaar verbinden.

Langdurige installaties bij Dia Beacon en de Chinati Foundation blijven het erfgoed van Chamberlain verankeren, en bieden het publiek een materiële geschiedenis van automobielstaal dat omgevormd is tot sculptuur. De programmering rond deze projecten richtte zich op nieuwe doelgroepen en educatie. De presentatie in Pompidou koppelde de Mehretu-auto aan lezingen over verftoepassing en livrei-ontwerp, wat studenten van kunst- en industrieel ontwerp aantrok. BMW en de kunstenaar hebben ook een workshop-initiatief aangekondigd dat voor 2025 op de planning staat, waardoor het pedagogische bereik van het project wordt vergroot.

Dealers melden op hun beurt dat bezoekers van de beurs deze zomer specifiek vragen naar auto-geïnspireerde abstractie, een teken dat de verbinding tussen studio, straat en racebaan nog steeds open blijft.
