Motoring blueprints transformed into contemporary art go on show at Beaulieu
02 June 2026
The National Motor Museum is to show contemporary artworks which include blueprints of old Land Rover, Triumph and Mini vehicles acquired by an award-winning French artist and turned into contemporary pop art pieces.
The exhibition will be open at the National Motor Museum’s In Focus Gallery from 12 June 2026 - 7 February 2027.
Alan Reullier has used the drawings to create pop art pieces celebrating Britain's motoring legacy. The colourful exhibition showcases and celebrates the artistry of classic car design, with visitors able to view and buy the one-of-a-kind artwork. Limited edition prints of some of the pieces will also be available to purchase.
Reuiller’s agent Edwina Lightfoot says, “Alan is an industrial artist who has worked with aerospace firms. His background as a former graffiti artist can be seen in the artwork with its bold patterns and colours around the prints and his signature black-and-white motifs.”
Alan Reulier says, "I'm inspired by the chance to push the boundaries of automotive design and create something unique that resonates with all audiences. My exhibition at Beaulieu is dedicated to the history of the British motor industry and forms part of a broader reflection on the circulation of knowledge, industrial memory and the transmission of forms.”
Andrea Bishop, Director of Collections at the National Motor Museum says, “We are delighted to have an opportunity to showcase Alan’s vibrant and innovative artworks. Reimagining and transforming heritage into art, they challenge our perceptions of significance.”
The exhibition is open every day (except Christmas Day) and is included in the Beaulieu admission ticket. Tickets are available at https://www.beaulieu.co.uk/
