The Krink Mini Project

05 NOV 2009 | Posted By: Jamie

I have always been a fan of Craig Costello and his works on various inanimate objects over the years. So it is with much interest that I saw this video and post on a project that he just released with Mini Cooper. The launch was held in Erste Liebe Bar last week in Hamburg, Germany. I had never actually seen any video of him working, but I can tell you, my bin is going to get a working over this weekend to say the least.

May be a while before the car gets it.

Check out the video below.

Can you explain this to me please Jamie. I mean, I don't know much about cars or art, so any guidance on how to gain a deeper appreciation of this would be helpful.

The man has spoken. I can see what they were trying to do, reviving the Art Cars thing (http://tinyurl.com/bmwartcars) but i think they missed the mark.

So it's like when a rich guy lights his cigar with a hundred dollar bill? Except the cigar is a car and the lighter is one of the big boys of the marker scene.

Totally with you on the pigeons call Merda. I mean, it's kind of cool. But why? They've painted the windows so it's not practical. And I just don't think it's awesome enough to be an "art" piece. If they're launching a car that is so inherently same same as its predecessor, I understand the need for something different to get it some publicity, but this feels more like a Halloween prank that you'd get pissed off about. A Mini is a thing of beauty. A style icon. And here they've just kind of messied it up some.
