“Barbara” on the rear bumper, “Lola” on the driver’s side: A total of about 60 names, the artist wrote in deep red next to each bullet hole. The title of this unusual work: “The Ones You Did not Write – The Maybach Car”. Why the name? Julian Schnabel: “Women, connect me with those beautiful memories.
The exhibit will be on display at one of the most exciting art exhibitions of the year in Venice – La Biennale di Venzia until November 27, 2011.
