The Spoke'n Word: What is Art?

I know I'm not going to be able to get to Ridgefield, Conneticut to see a new bike-themed art show there, so I'll have to be content with perusing some of the "Bike Rides" exhibition online, from the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum.

The show was organized by Aldrich curators Richard Klein and Mónica Ramírez-Montagut, with help from musician, artist, and bicycle advocate David Byrne.  The idea is to explore the relavance of bikes not only as transportation - but in our culture.  There are functional bike designs (including one of Lance's old steeds!)... plus more abstract cycles and video.
