In a salute to his youth as a decal applier for racing teams, artist Michael Bevilacqua created a full-scale custom racer to be the core of his exhibition of new paintings at Deitch. The cars first 3000 mile bounce between California, Jersey, Brooklyn, and Soho was easy. The hard part was squeezing the vehicle through the tiny doorframe of the gallery space. The solution? Flip the car on its side after bolting it to a custom mini-stage…then roll it on in. AKA: ‘The Eminent Lawsuit on Wheels on Wood on Wheels’ method. Feel free to use it.
