JOIN PLATTEFORUM NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR UNVEILING OF USA PRO CYCLING CHALLENGE BIKE PROJECT


The USA Pro Cycling Challenge is now in it's second year, and so is the bike project that was launched in 2011 to coincide and bring extra dimension to the event throughout the art community.  13 artists have been selected by curator and Plus Gallery owner Ivar Zeile to transform new bicycles into works of art, to be displayed throughout the month of August on the baggage carousels at the Denver International Airport.   This year 12 of the artists were paired with teams from the US and around the world that will be competing in Challenge, with the instructions to interpret the team spirit creatively with their bike.  The 13th artist was paired with the USA Pro Cycling Challenge itself and will be displayed on the floor at DIA during August.
PlatteForum will be this year's host for the bike unveiling reception, the public's first chance to see the bikes and to meet the artists selected this year.  We welcome you to come join us that evening for this singular project and to support one of Colorado's now signature sporting events.
