Lowriders are getting the spotlight this spring in Los Angeles. A new exhibition called "Best in Low" opened on May 12 at the Petersen Automotive Museum.

And if fine art is more your thing, you can check out the work of artist and lowrider owner Jacqueline Valenzuela at “Arts at Blue Roof” in South L.A. (it's open through June 1).

Valenzuela's art often focuses on women in the lowrider community.

"For so long, women in the space were just looked at as eye candy," Valenzuela told the LAist Studios podcast How To LA. "And yeah, some women do own cars and model with their cars. That's amazing. There's also women that don't model with their cars and sometimes they're not given that platform. So I strive to do that in my art practice."
