Help us raise the funds necessary to produce Tandem - the flagship exhibition of 2014 Bike Art Adelaide Festival!
A community-centred DIY Festival, Bike Art Adelaide is run by a dedicated team of volunteers. The original idea was simple - to display artwork about and featuring bikes at the same time as the Australian Cycling Conference and the Santos Tour Down Under.The first, highly successful, edition of this bi-annual Festival was held in 2012 and now we're back to bring you the second instalment in January 2014!
We're almost there as January swiftly approaches, but we need one last push to get us over the line. Having already attracted significant in-kind sponsorship from The Adelaide Airport and The Bicycle Institute of South Australia, and even a small financial contribution from the Airport we have been able to dream big... but we still need your help to make the final stages of the exhibition happen.
Curated by Tegan Hale and Eleanor Scicchitano, with artists Theofunya and team, Adelaide Bike Kitchen, Don Brice, Jacky Mutaugh, Steve Oatway, Malcolm Richards, Cynthia Gemus, Karen Cornelius, James Stewart, Obie O'Brien, Kat Coppock, and Loren Pingel and Jeff Pitt in co-operation with the Lobethal community association.
Just confirmed... Alicia Min Harvie and Andrew Haycroft are also set to debut a new dance work at an exclusive launch event.
*Bike Art Adelaide Festival is auspiced by the Bicycle Institute of South Australia; a registered not-for-profit organisation.

How The Funds Will Be Used
Funds raised will go to the production of five site-specific
works commissioned for the Tandem and Bike Art Adelaide 2014
These works are –
ART RE CYCLE station:
An art-sculpture fitted with tools that permits FREE 24hr bike repairs. Artists mock-up pictured below -
Don Brice's 'PEOPLE LIKE YOU' series. Don has engaged with the cycling community and photographed a cross-section of characters, recording their motivation for cycling and love of all things bike
.
THE VERTICAL GARDEN
Lead by infamous yarn-stormer, Theofunya, the team will create a vertical garden from yarn, lace and bicycle tyres on the poles in the Adelaide Airport baggage claim area.
POST-IT
Also from the mind of Theofunya, this talented woman is worth 'noting' (we can't be the only ones who appreciate stationary jokes). Check out her previous work on the window of the Advertiser. If you feel anything like us you'll be teeming with a 'whole lotta love' for what this woman is capable of...
