If you're in Canberra or visiting soon, the re-opening of the Royal
Danish Embassy includes a cycling themed exhibition entitled "Dreams on
Wheels: Danish Cycling Culture for Urban Sustainability"
The exhibition includes an amazing bicycle film festival (see the
program in the link below!), speakers program, a community day and free
rides on an original Copenhagen Citybike.
From the Danish Embassy site: The exhibition is curated by Thomas
Ermacora, Founder of Etikstudio, and has previously been shown at the
Danish House in Paris, The Danish Design Centre in Copenhagen, and
Harbourfront Centre of Toronto.
The concept is driven by the motivation to illustrate how a
“cyclocentric” approach to urban development stimulates environmental
concern and sustainable civic behaviour.
Dreams on Wheels can be seen at the Showcase Gallery, Commonwealth
Place, Canberra, ACT from 3 May to the 1 June 2008.
Admission is free and open to people of all ages.
