These cars look like they’ve been drawn onto your screen…
But they’re real.
🇬🇹 ( vee - dez ) 🇺🇸 took five iconic cars from the 80s and reimagined them with his unmistakable black-and-white aesthetic.
The “Flat Out” exhibit is now live at the Petersen Automotive Museum, featuring true classics such as the Porsche 944 and Ferrari 308 GTS.
But it’s not just the cars that make this exhibit stand out.
Vides’ signature “Reality to Idea” style strips each car back to bold outlines, shadows and exaggerated details, making these instantly recognisable machines look almost like sketches brought to life.
And the choice of cars makes the whole thing even more interesting. From the distinctive Citroën SM to the striking DeTomaso Longchamp, each car brings a completely different shape and character to the collection.
It’s a completely different perspective on automotive art to what we’re used to seeing — taking cars that were already designed to turn heads and transforming them into something that looks like it belongs on the page of a comic book.
Seeing legendary cars like these reimagined in such a simple, graphic style really makes you look at their design differently.
Vides’ “Reality to Idea” artistic style paired with these automotive icons makes “Flat Out” a must-see exhibit within the Petersen Automotive Museum
