Brochure expo Small Resistance

Small Resistance - Bicycles in the Amsab-ISG collection
 

From June 14 to September 27, 2024, Amsab-ISG presented the exhibition "Klein Verzet" (Small Resistance). Using pieces from its own collection, this exhibition highlighted cycling heritage in all its facets – from a toy of the elite, to a means of emancipation, to the struggle with and for the bicycle. The history of the bicycle in Flanders was presented, from the first cycling race in Ghent on April 11, 1869, to the current ubiquity and variety of two-wheeled vehicles.

This publication collects the images from the exhibition, enriched with interesting contributions on the history and impact of cycling in Flanders, including from Bieke Purnelle of RoSa vzw and Wies Callens of the Cyclists' Union.
