About The Artwork

each bike I paint is at once a specific bike and a universal symbol of empowerment. This bike was built by Alvin Drysdale. He built lightweight bicycles in Manhattan, working from the 1920s until the 1950s. He made bikes with his own name, such as Drysdale Special, and with other names including Alvin and Velox. This Velox Ace was owned by Alfred Zaffini, a racer from Needham Massachusetts, he bought it in 1937. I'd like to think he raced it at Madison Square Garden and the Coney Island Velodrome. you don't need to know all that. it is just a beautiful bike, that's been places...

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.
