Hopped-Up Photo Exhibition
One of the first articles I posted here on rodandcustom.com.au was a small introduction and a web link to the fine art photography of David Biene and his amazing book Hopped-Up.
Extract from the website:
"Hopped-Up is a portrait of the European scene of the Hot Rodding culture. David  uses fine art photography and sophisticated face-to-face interviews to present all the different facets of this subculture and some of its protagonists. This book is about real people, about personalities. It is about true enthusiasm and passion, about sweat and fun, about friendship and individuality. And it is about style and photography.
David Biene spent a lot of time on the road over the past 5 years traveling through Europe to meet Rodders in their garages, he stands by the start line when they race and hangs out with them after the races to celebrate their victories."
Currently in London I managed to spot an ad in one of the many local magazines for an exhibition featuring a selection of Davids works being held at the Proud Camden Photo Gallery at the awesome Camden Markets. I just had to get along and check out some of the great photographs that essentially showcase Europes Hot Rod culture.
