During the 100th Anniversary Celebration of the Harley-Davidson
Motorcycle Company in August and September 2003, Michael Pry set
up his photographic equipment inside of a tent near the center of
the event and invited bikers to be photographed. Michael Pry answers
the question - Who are these people? The resulting collection of
detailed still photographs of Bikers allows the viewer a rare glimpse
into the eyes of the individuals that often are only seen in motion.
Each image is accompanied by a title including the name, occupation
and hometown of each rider. Finding out that a rider is a pipe fitter,
teacher, or hair dresser becomes another revealing part of this
exhibit.
The majority of the images displayed are contact printed directly
from the original 5"x 7" negative. The images in this
exhibit are contained in Michael Pry’s book titled Harley Nation.
Published in 2004 by Amigo Press, this attractive book has 46 plates.
