Summary

Rather than treating them as complex pieces of mechanical equipment, this text looks at the legendary custom-built motorcycles of Harley Davidson as icons of our time. It includes a series of essays that sets the creative process of customizing in its wider cultural context.

The Art of Harley Summary

The Art of Harley by Barbican Exhibition

For the first time Harley-Davidson's legendary custom motorcycles are analysed not just from a technical perspective, but as cultural icons of our time that are synonymous with glamour, power and rebellion. Supported by Harley-Davidson, this fittingly stylish book gives a unique insight into the creative process of customising from 1945 to the present. A collection of illustrated essays by notable authors such as John Carroll, Bal Croce, Ian Mutch, Ted Polhemus, Tim Remus and Dr Martin Jack Rosenblum explore Harley-Davidson's contribution to contemporary design, technology and the broader cultural context including film, music and fashion. A catalogue of over 30 of the world's very best custom bikes follows, with full technical details.
