The TT is marking its 100th year this year (2007)


An exhibition of original artwork depicting TT racing over the past 100 years is being exhibited during the Isle of Man's two-week festival.
Acclaimed motorcycle artists Rod Organ and Peter Hearsey have painted pieces for the decades between 1907 and 2006.

The exhibition will run for most of the centenary TT festival from 28 May to 10 June at the Courtyard Gallery at St Johns.

At least one of the artists is expected to attend most days.

Mr Organ is official artist for Ducati, the TT Riders Association, and Riders for Health and has been a professional Motorcycle artist since 1970.

Mr Hearsey is one of the few British artists to be invited to join the American Society of Automobile Artists.

Every year he paints the picture used to advertise the Festival of Speed at Goodwood.

The centenary Isle of Man TT Festival runs from 26 May to 8 June.
