Schwinn Paramount Track Racing Bicycle on Green Painting

Taliah Lempert is a visual artist living and working in Brooklyn, New York. Lempert's work combines the two things she is most passionate about, painting and cycling. Since 1996, cycling has been her primary mode of transportation. She raced at the Kissena Velodrome in Queens, NY from 1999-2007  For more than twenty five years Lempert has been painting bicycles from observation in her studio, often borrowing bikes from friends, colleagues or for a commission.   Lempert's work has been exhibited in galleries and alternative spaces in just about every major city in the U.S. as well as Tokyo, Paris and London. In addition to painting, Lempert uses her original cycling imagery to create an array of other items such as limited edition prints, drawings, silkscreen t-shirts, postcards, coloring books and more.
