INDIAN LARRY: Photographs by Timothy White


Whether a motorcycle enthusiast or not the upcoming photography exhibit at PROJECT Gallery will make anyone a fan of Indian Larry. Perhaps one of the most beloved figures to ever exist in the motorcycle world, after a past of drug abuse and homelessness, he would become known equally for the mind bending choppers he created as he would his wild antics, tattoos, generosity, and his carnivalesque character and stunts.  Larry Desmedt is quite the interesting subject. 



For acclaimed celebrity photographer Timothy White who has shot legends and icons for over twenty years, Larry was all that and more. The two became longtime friends and riding partners and Larry would become one of White’s most profound subjects. White immortalized the late motorcycle builder in a previously published book, and the exhibit at PROJECT Gallery is the LA premiere retrospective excerpted from the book.
