Carolina (Caro) Fontoura Alzaga
Carolina (Caro) Fontoura Alzaga is an artist of Los Angeles, Ca.
Caro designs and creates unique chandeliers from discarded bicycle chains.
Her work is very unique and creative
From Caro's Website:
"The recycled bicycle parts become a representation of the dismissed, invisible, and powerless, but are also an affirmation of self-propelled movement. The bicycle chandelier thereby creates a new third meaning of reclaimed agency."

From the professional peloton to rural roads and city streets, the hearts and souls of cyclists are forever connected. The shared suffering, glory, fun and passion for the sport of cycling are the subjects of much of Michael’s work. Welcome to a world filled with travel, whimsy, history and heart. Each of the images is original art created by Michael Valenti for the use of our clients and for reproduction as fine art prints. The cycling poster was very popular during the Paris poster period in the late 19th century with many original works still being sold by galleries around the world.

Vintage Cycling Posters
I have been collecting vintage cycling posters for over 25 years and selling them for over 10. Vintage cycling posters have charm as well as artistic and cultural significance. The Belle Epoque of poster design peaked in the 1890's and may of the greatest designs date to this period. It also corresponded with the time of the feminist movement and this is why there are so many beautiful women in old cycling posters. Bicycle manufacturers were selling freedom of movement as well as bicycles. Journey back in time with these posters that promoted long gone bicycle brands, tires, famous races and a growing sense of freedom for women. Many were created by artists who in their own right became famous beyond their poster art. For more information and posters, visit www.BicyclingArt.com |
