Fixie Bikes – Retro Cycling Vintage

Bicycle Art

There has always been an interesting synergy between artists and bicycles. Whether its because the tranquil state cultivated when out for a bike ride lends itself to the creative process or because creative people are also intelligent people and understand the benefits the bicycle brings to humanity.

Over the years some of the brightest artists have involved themselves with society by being in it, on a bicycle, rather than shut away from it. You can bet that if Leonardo da Vinci hadn't spent his time working on the helicopter the next thing he would have designed would have been the bicycle!

For those looking for cheap or discount cycling artwork to decorate a wall or to give as a gift there are plenty of choices as well as those looking for more upmarket pieces. As well as modern oil painting, screenprints and reproductions there is also a plethora of vintage retro antique style photos and drawings to choose from. Whether one wants to invoke the earliest days of the penny farting and the safety bicycle or would rather have mementos from the golden age of professional bike racing the choices are out there.

Here we provide a selection of our favourites that are currently available

The tradition of art in all its forms continues closely with the bicycle today, just take a look at the annual Burning Man festival in America to see the impact the bicycle has in the creative process.
