Others are vehicles inseparable from travel and adventure: Bettinelli’s legendary Vespa, which travelled 24,000 km from Rome to Saigon, specials that crossed the sandy desert in the Paris-Dakar, as well as enduro, trials and strips of asphalt.Īnd there’s an important new element: over fifty motorcycle models create a dialogue with contemporary works of art, including explicit references and indirect suggestions. Then there are grand prix racers, Giacomo Agostini’s MV Agusta, Valentino Rossi’s Yamaha and Casey Stoner’s Ducati. Many motorcycle models which where on display at Venaria, and several evoke legendary films, like the chopper from Easy Rider and the Triumph Bonneville Steve McQueen rode in The Great Escape. With the patronage of the City of Turin, curated by Luca Beatrice, Arnaldo Colasanti and Stefano Fassone, and was hosted at the Reggia di Venaria in the halls of the Citroniera delle Scuderie Juvarriane from 18 July 2018 to 24 February 2019. A journey around the world to discover the stories that made great what Pirsig called „a system of concepts worked out in steel“.Įxactly twenty years after The Art of the Motorcycle, the great exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum in New York that set a record for visitors, Arthemisia and Consorzio delle Residenze Reali Sabaude offer the world of motorcycles the exhibition Easy Rider. The are believed to have been invented in 1885 though their aesthetic developed after the Second World War, and in less than 150 years of history some makes and models have earned a place in the collective imagination, from Italian companies such as Ducati and Moto Guzzi, by way of British genius and Japanese efficiency, to finally cross the ocean to the American legend of the Harley Davidson. They are true artistic creations that reveal the inspiration of those who #design them and transform our concept of agility and movement. Their bold shapes, the melody of the motor and the bright colours of the gas tanks represent freedom, escape from the world, a race beyond infinity.

The fact that the wheels could rotate laterally and the bike could actually elongate were features we probably won’t see on a real motorcycle anytime soon.

The long wheelbase and interminably wide wheels gave the Bat-Pod a truly unique military look that was worthy of the Dark Knight. This custom made monster was supposedly impossible to ride, but Christopher Nolan and his team made it happen with some expert stunt riding. Now that would've made Jason Bourne even more impressive. We just would like to have seen more of Bourne’s moto skills on longer chase scenes. Not only is he able to hot wire a bike, but he also jumps the small 4RT like he’s its bidding master and manages to hop a wall like he’s taking candy from a kid. Count on Jason Bourne to take everyday things and do amazing things with them, including motorcycles.
