Romero Britto Bentley Continental GT

Romero Britto is a Brazilian neo-pop artist that specializes in cheerful and vivid signature motifs and is now based in Miami, Florida. To his "Come to my World" exhibition in Berlin, Britto has created a uniquely styled Bentley Continental GT.

This ‘Britto-Bentley’ is probably one of the most unusual Bentleys ever seen, featuring a bizarre mix of cartoonish flowers, flying hearts, and yellow stars, squiggles and signs dance on the hood and colorful, comic-like figures adorn the doors. These unique designs are further emphasized by the GT's dark blue exterior which boasts white squiggles.

According to Britto, "It (the Bentley Continental GT) is the most beautiful and elegant car in the world. The lines of the new design are perfect to paint as a clean canvas. What a way to start a fascinating and colorful journey."

The Romero Britto exhibition, hosted by the Automobil Forum Unter den Linden, will take place from this July 10 to September 6 at the Mensing Gallery in Berlin, Germany. When the exhibition is over, the "Britto-Bentley" will be auctioned off to support the Nathalie Todenhöfer Foundation for multiple sclerosis and Best Buddies, a charity for the mentally challenged.
