Velocypedia: A contemporary art exhibition about bicycle passion and sustainable transportation
International exhibition Velocypedia introduces works of artists, designers, craftspeople, and fans of cycling – everything inspired by the most known mode of transport powered by human force – the bicycle. The bicycle plays a main role as a symbol of sustainable mobility, providing unlimited pleasure and unusual functions.
The aim of the exhibition is to promote everyday cycling and at the same time to highlight the problems of transportation in big cities in 21st century. Other important topics of the exhibition include criticism of the negative impacts of automobilism and the occupancy of public spaces for car expansion.
