Over the course of his long career in art, Andy Warhol drew inspiration from a number of now-iconic images, from the face of Marilyn Monroe to a humble box of soap. But Warhol also had a penchant for cars \u2014 largely as a muse, but also a connoisseur, despite never having learned to drive<\/a>. What happens, then, when you juxtapose Warhol\u2019s paintings of cars with some of the vehicles that inspired those works?

Andy Warhol: Cars  \u2014 Works From The Mercedes-Benz Art Collection<\/em><\/a>, a new exhibit at Los Angeles\u2019s Petersen Automotive Museum, puts that side of Warhol into the spotlight. It\u2019s slated to run through January 23 of next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlthough our exhibits are always centered on automobiles, we\u2019re always looking for intersections and overlaps with other aspects of human culture (art, cinema, architecture, fashion, etc.),\u201d Bryan Stevens, the Petersen Automotive Museum\u2019s Director of Exhibitions told InsideHook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
