Bentley x Stephen Wiltshire: Art and Commitment

While for BMW art cars have been part of their tradition for over fifty years, they are much more recent for other manufacturers, as is the case for Bentley, who has asked British artist Stephen Wiltshire to hand-paint their Bentayga model. 29 different monuments and landscapes, representing New York, London, Paris, Rome, Milan, Venice, Tokyo and Hong Kong, were depicted alongside international leading figures. Stephen Wiltshire, an artist who can draw a landscape by memory after seeing it just once, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three and remained mute throughout his childhood. His family and doctors soon learned that Stephen communicated through drawing. This is a project that takes on a valuable inclusive dimension, extending beyond the realm of art and well worth mentioning.
