Following his UNIQLO and Off-White™ collaborations, Futura 2000 now teams up with BMW on its Street Rebels initiative. The partnered effort sees the legendary graffiti artist completely hand-painting an M2 sports car — both interior and exterior sections of the vehicle. Futura has worked on three exclusive originals alongside a highly-limited version of the automobile that will be available from June 2020.

All of the exclusive models designed by Futura will be officially unveiled at the second Frieze Los Angeles Art Fair that is slated to run through February 13-16 at Paramount Picture Studios. For those interested in purchasing the highly-limited edition, you can register now on BMW’s official website.

Elsewhere, Chanel launches “Inside Chanel” video series that explores Gabrielle Chanel’s relationship with art.
