Art Deco Automobile Exhibition In Nashville


Thanks to the Hemmings blog for letting me know about an exhibition opening this summer at the Frist Center for the Visual Arts in Nashville.  "Sensuous Steel:  Art Deco Automobiles" will display about 20 cars that illustrate the influence of Art Deco on automotive design.  Included in the exhibition is this 1929 Cord L-29 Cabriolet.  For more information visit FristCenter.org.  I will be there sometime this summer.
