This is a great little museum with a diverse collection. However, this review focuses on a particular exhibit going on until July 23, 2006.
Some of you might remember the book, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Well how about just The Art of the Motorcycle.
The following was copied from the museums web site:
Both art and motorcycle enthusiasts will feel a part of the cultural
revolution when The Art of the Motorcycle rolls into the Orlando Museum of Art. Based on the landmark exhibition that opened at the Guggenheim Museum, New York, in 1998 to record crowds, The Art of the Motorcycle explores the motorcycle as both cultural icon and design achievement and offers a thought-provoking challenge to conventional assumptions about art and popular culture in the modern age. It is organized by Wonders, The Memphis International Cultural Series, in association with the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, New York.
