Most motorcycle models seen in the movies can be had at a local dealership. But one iconic movie motorcycle hasn't been available because it wasn't even real. Until now.

    You’re confusing “art” with “art you like”. All gallery art exists to “make a cash grab from nerds who grew up and made enough money to buy shit they want”, FFS. Really, just depends on your definition of nerd. Just because you don’t want to buy it doesn’t don’t its value as art for those who appreciate it. 🤓

      No I am not confusing them.

      Again art is created with creative expression.

      A thing that is designed to be made in numbers for the purpose of selling to customers isn’t art.

      If this is art then a Tesla cars, iPhones, and and Stanley cups are all art. Someone designed all those things…but they are products.

      This thing doesn’t even have a design that was made by those selling it. It’s a copy of someone’s art, made into a product.

        So, “a copy of someone’s art” is not art and simply being a product invalidates a thing’s ability to be art? Interesting take, and I think you’ll find that it’s not only resoundingly false but completely unsupported. You are, in fact, mistaking the definition of “art”. Try again?
