The Annual Moleskine Project is a collective exhibition of artists’ sketchbooks from around the world.
Now on their seventh year, Spoke Art presents The Moleskine Project—its annual collective celebrating the artist sketchbook. Over 60 international artists from the contemporary movement were asked to place their visions on the pages of a Moleskine sketchbook. The results are currently on display at Spoke Art’s New York City gallery.
