The
giant "Motorcycle #1" sculpture (55"h. 94"L. 33"w)
by Los Angeles sculptor Bruce Gray is constructed in heavy industrial steel
found objects including 2 very heavy massive railroad equipment gears for
wheels, a train coupling link for the seat, giant train springs for shocks,
oversized chain, and a BMW R75/5 motorcycle engine and tailpipes. This slightly
oversized motorcycle sculpture almost looks ridable, but the engine is non-functional,
and this incredible piece of art is meant to be enjoyed visually only. This
unique found object motorcycle sculpture looks half retro, and half futuristic,
like it was used by "The Terminator," or "Mad Max," or some other very intense post apocalyptic character. The motorcycle sculpture
is equally at home indoors or outside, and is currently available for $25,000.
Approximate weight of 800 pounds. This must be seen in person to really appreciate
this piece. This sculpture was featured on Discovery Channel's "Monster House," in Angeleno Magazine: see article here, Art Business News magazine: see article here , on the rear cover of the Chic Eco Directory: see here and in The Fabricator magazine: see article here. |
