The works of bicycle art on display at Minneapolis Institute of Arts

Case in point, the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, which got together with the fine folks at Handsome Cycles to create three bicycles inspired by three works of art at the museum: Frank Stella’s 1969 painting Tahkt-I-Sulayman Variation II,  art deco, Czech-built automobile the 1948 Tatra T87 sedan and Grainstack, Sun in the Mist, a painting by French impressionist Claude Monet.
