Why I Ride: The Art Of Bicycling in New York
"Why I Ride" is an independently organized multi-venue exhibition that will showcase New York artists working in photography, painting, drawing, and sculpture or installation, who are inspired by the freedom and mobility that the bicycle makes possible in a congested metropolis. These artists view interactions with neighbors and strangers — both friendly and otherwise — as preferable to the isolation that grows out of our sprawling, auto-dependent environment.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a bike tour and brunch, film screening, and a website with an online gallery of all work submitted to the project.
The event runs May 3--June 3, 2007.
