Together with publisher Hatje Cantz, BMW launched today the first ever comprehensive publication about the BMW Art Car Collection in the shape of a richly illustrated book.

The book launched today covers the story behind each car and how it came to life together with various portraits and interviews that provide an insight into the creative process of all the artists involved.
