# Graffiti-Covered Concept Cars D*face Debuts the Save the World Art Car at the Moniker Art Fair By leewashington | Published 2018-10-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-car1 References: [fabukmagazine](https://fabukmagazine.com/moniker-art-fair-2018-launch/) & [monikerartfair](https://www.monikerartfair.com) Renowned street artist D*Face has unveiled the first-ever Formula E art car in East London. Kaspersky Lab wanted to breathe new life into the high-end [hot rod art car concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adx-suv) by selecting a new set of wheels to work with and giving the urban artist free range to do what he wanted with it. This resulted in D*Face imprinting his bright, bold and colorful artistic trademarks on the [Virgin Racing Formula E car](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/r32ev-concept-model). The car, emblazoned with the phrase "Save the World," features several of D*Face’s iconic wings and acts as a vehicle to illustrate a powerful message – that art can empower people to make a change. Those interested in checking out the art car can see it until October 9th at the Moniker Art Fair. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/graffiti) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Formula E Art Cars:** Opportunity for car companies to collaborate with street artists to create unique and socially conscious designs for their electric vehicles. - **Urban Art Marketing:** Opportunity for companies to tap into the urban art scene to create memorable and impactful marketing campaigns for their products or services. - **Socially Conscious Design:** Opportunity for designers and companies to use their platforms and products to spread important messages and inspire positive change. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Automotive Industry:** Collaborating with street artists to create unique and socially conscious designs for their electric and hybrid vehicles can attract a new demographic and increase sales. - **Art Industry:** Partnering with companies to create marketing campaigns centered around urban art can help artists gain exposure and bring attention to important social issues. - **Advertising Industry:** Incorporating socially conscious design and impactful messaging into advertising campaigns can help companies connect with consumers and stand out in a crowded market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Artful Car Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-m-hybrid-v8.md) - [Artistic Auto Showcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/20th-bmw-art-car.md) - [Collaborative Monochromatic Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collaborative-monochromatic-art-exhibition.md) - [Artistic Auto Brand Activations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/london-art-fair.md) - [Bespoke Car Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Tattoo-Inspired-Land-Rover.md) - [Artful Car-Themed Capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cao-fei-art-car.md) - [Dynamic Car-Themed Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veiled-porsche.md) - [Artistically Rendered One-Of-A-Kind Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/romero-britto.md) - [Miniature Designer Collectible Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-car-1.md)
