BMW will take part in the inaugural fair of Paris Photo at LA’s Paramount Pictures Studios, where the German carmaker will present the 1979 M1 Art Car by Andy Warhol, as well as a rare making of footage of this work. BMW will also display a set of Burlesque Style Photos featuring the 6-Series Gran Coupé by German photographer Uwe Düttmann.

Four of the photos showcase the BMW 650i Gran Coupé in a retro setting, celebrating film noir as well as the sensuality of the best of burlesque versus the high-tech design of the 6 Series Gran Coupe. The photos were made two years ago at a Hollywood studio and a private movie set outside of Los Angeles.

The 15 photos taken both inside and outside the Gran Coupé present two female models acting out signature burlesque poses. The pictures, which will be exhibited at the fair for the very first time, will be presented in an environment paying tribute to their origins.

“BMW is pleased to be involved in the inaugural Paris Photo LA. We are particularly looking forward to bringing out Andy Warhol art car and debuting our new photos,” said Ludwig Willisch, President and CEO, BMW of North America.

If you look closely at the burlesque-style photos below you may spot a BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé in each of them.
