“ART OF THE ROAD” was curated by motorcycle builder Steve Culp and his bike enthusiast wife Liz Swaine. In the beginning was the motorcycle, and what followed was a love affair that has lasted more than 100 years. The exhibition spanned the golden ages in the development of motorcycles with bikes that were both rare and one of a kind to those who found legions of followers. The exhibition focused on the Art of the machine itself… the lines, the creations; the ability of two wheels to transport us through a century of design and open road romance. These sculptural movable works tell the stories of their era, their countries, their designers and of wildly differing times in our lives.
