  The Harley-Davidson Museum opens the "Living Lost" photograph exhibit by rider and photographer Josh Kurpius.

   The photographs were taken during a series of road trips Josh took across the country with a group of riders on his chopped 1977 Ironhead Sportster, "The Locust".  The images delve into the uninhibited lifestyle of  bikers exploring the hi-ways and bi-ways of America by illustrating the raw beauty of unexplored roads.

   While riding across the country, they find themselves stopping in places you might barely notice if  you were in a car, or even on a new bike. 

   There is a sense of timelessness that runs throughout the photographs. References in the images look just as plausibly 1970's as they do nowadays, from the bikers and their rides to the landscape.

  If you're going to be in the Milwaukee area the museum is well worth a visit.  Last known address, 400 W Canal Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201.
