Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Dubai Hosts Renowned Artist to Unveil Unique Gallery Concepts

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Dubai hosted renowned British artist and designer Helen Amy Murray to showcase unique artworks that were displayed within the Gallery of Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII.

The specially created art pieces were unveiled at a gala event to an audience of invited guests, VIPs and distinguished Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Dubai customers at the Rolls-Royce Boutique in City Walk.

A Bespoke Rolls-Royce Phantom motor car, which had the stunning ‘Lakeshore Aurora’ artwork installed in its Gallery, was displayed to the guests, giving them a chance to explore both the car and the opportunities for artistic expression that the Gallery feature offered.

The unique Bespoke Phantom model was truly stylish with its dual combination of Rolls-Royce’s striking ‘Belladonna Purple’ and contrasting ‘English White’ exterior colour scheme. The interiors were in a similarly contrasting combination of ‘Purple Silk’ with ‘Artic White’ for a highly dramatic effect that showcased Bespoke design.

The Bespoke Phantom also had Rolls-Royce’s secluded Privacy Suite, a luxurious feature that offers outstanding rear seat comfort and a completely isolated personal cabin.

British artist Helen Amy Murray chose to unveil two of her latest art concepts on this occasion. They would one day be displayed within the Gallery of a Phantom.

While one artwork was inspired by the stunning form and grace of a peacock, the second one displayed the majesty of the rolling sand dunes that dominate the natural landscapes of the Middle East.

During the Gallery event, Helen explained how she conceptualized the peacock and sand dune-inspired Gallery pieces and how they would merge with the unique Gallery feature inside a Phantom.

By inviting such renowned artists to produce work that aligns with one of its finest models, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars demonstrated to the guests at The Gallery event the link that exists between the realm of fine art and the marque’s production of the world’s finest automobiles.

The evening also demonstrated how Roll-Royce’s team of Bespoke designers can transform the imagination and creativity of clients into a physical reality by merging the motor car’s Gallery with outstanding artworks of their choice.

César Habib, Rolls-Royce Motor Car’s Regional Director for the Middle East and Africa, said the Gallery event proved to be an opportunity to showcase the incredible and unique concept behind the Gallery in a Rolls-Royce Phantom, as well as the creative talent of Helen Amy Murray and Michael Bryden, the lead Bespoke designer.

He added, “The Gallery in a Rolls-Royce Phantom is the ultimate space in which to curate and display unique works of art. The Gallery highlights the shared goals and bonds that exist between the world of art and Rolls-Royce as well as appealing to our clients’ appreciation of fine craftsmanship and incredible talent.”

Mamdouh Khairallah, General Manager of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars AGMC, said that the traditional event was the perfect showcase for presenting the limitless artistic possibilities that are available to Phantom owners thanks to the Gallery feature as well as the Phantom’s range of luxury options which include the Privacy Suite.

He concluded, “The artworks on show, all of which were inspired by the Phantom’s Gallery, were an example of the countless ways in which owners can customize their Rolls-Royce motor car to embody their love of fine art, while the Bespoke model Phantom on show revealed the limitless ways in which Rolls-Royce’s Bespoke craftsmen can deliver the ultimate levels of personalization.”
