DETOUR The Moleskine City Notebook Experience
For two centuries now Moleskine (mol-a-skeen'-a) has been the legendary notebook of artists, writers, intellectuals and travelers. From gifted artists Henri Matisse (1869–1954) and Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890), to poet and leader of the surrealist movement André Breton (1896-1966) to Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) considered the most influential writer of the last century, to famous travel writer Bruce Chatwin (1940-1989).
By using moleskine doesn't necessarily make you one of them, nevertheless it is a good notebook.

DETOUR: The Moleskine City Notebook Experience
June 1, 2007 - June 29, 2007
Art Directors Club Gallery (ADC)
106 W 29th St
To launch its new U.S. City Notebooks, Moleskine has given 70 blank books to some of the world's most creative artists, architects, film directors, graphic designers, illustrators, and writers connected to New York to fill up with their daily journeys and life experiences. These notebooks will be on display at the ADC Gallery, with a special preview on May 20, during the International Contemporary Furniture Fair. The project will support Lettera 27, a non-profit organization whose mission is to defend the right to literacy and education in the world's most deprived areas.
In conjunction with the project, Moleskinecity.com is a new blog dedicated to the city, its travelers, its residents, and independent and free-thinking people. There are blogs for each Moleskine City Notebook city, and each city blog features updates, curiosities, traveller experiences, and links to other blogs and communities. Please visit Moleskinecity.com to share your personal points of view, exchange information, discover your urban path, your interests, your itinerary, and become part of the U.S. DETOUR experience in New York
