“Peoples Bike Library of Portland”

Painted welded steel, bicycles

2009

“The Peoples Bike Library of Portland” is a functional bike rack, bike "lending" library, and monument to the vital bike culture of Portland. Erected by artists Brian Borrello and Vanessa Renwick in collaboration with Zoobomb (www.zoobomb.net), an iterative design process led to the current sculpture. An accumulation of small kids' bicycles are locked to the sculpture, lent to the public for weekly "zoo bomb" rides.
