Edward Hopper, From the Williamsburg Bridge, 1928. Oil on canvas.

In this painting, Hopper depicts the austere facades of four apartment buildings and reduces the steel suspension of the Williamsburg Bridge to the margins. Completed in 1903 and connecting Brooklyn with Manhattan, the structure is indicated only by the unobtrusive railing rising at a slight diagonal along the bottom of the canvas. As opposed to focusing on the bridge that facilitates movement in and out of the city, Hopper creates an image absent of noise or motion. He emphasizes the alienation and anonymity of urban life by including a single figure: a woman sitting alone in a top story window.

Can creativity change the world?

This was the title that caught my eye as I was zipping through Moynihan Hall in Penn Station Which is in Manhattan NYC. The artworks in the glass case which encompassed the exhibit stopped me in my tracks.

When I discovered that the exhibit was based on art that was created in moleskin Journals I could not resist. I had to take in this moment and document it so I could share it with you. These are some of my favorite pieces from this dope ass exhibit.
