  HONG KONG, October 17, 2007: Diesel is proud to launch Chapter Two of Issue Four of its seasonal ’zine, “BRAVE.” Following the successful launch of Chapter One in October with a Wing Shya photography exhibition and AliveNotDead.com music showcase, the second instalment feature internationally renowned artists from New York: Suitman, José Parlá, Rostarr and Deanne Cheuk.

  Inspired by a sense of adventure and journey, the quartet will embark on a 10-day trip in China called “The New Grand Tour.” Taking off from Shanghai, they will head to Yunnan Province, where they will visit Kunming, Lijiang, Shangri-La county and the Mei Li Snow Mountains. Searching for new experiences and cultural exchanges, highlights of the tour include: meeting the Chief Lama of the Eastern Bamboo Forest monastery, who is campaigning to preserve the traditional Tibetan art of Tong Ka; art-exchange sessions with local Chinese artists; as well as visiting school children in rural towns.

  “The New Grand Tour” will end in Hong Kong with an exhibition that launches on November 2 (Opening Event). The four artists will share their experiences from the China trip with an exhibition of art, sketches and photography. Also on show will be their renowned personal art pieces, exhibited and for sale in Hong Kong for the first time. The talented foursome will return to China in May 2008 for a full exhibition of “The New Grand Tour” in Beijing.

  Inspired by three words, “Only The Brave” — the Diesel corporate identity — “BRAVE” is a seasonal ’zine that’s different in attitude, content and creativity. With past issues in print form using rotating guest art directors, “BRAVE” has now evolved into a real live, physical experience. With an overriding theme of “Alive,” Issue Four is a three-part interactive journey through art, music and fashion, running from October to December 2007.

  
  

  
  

  香港2007年10月17日：Diesel品牌隆重發行第四冊季刊《BRAVE》的第二個篇章。在之前成功發行的第一篇章中，包括了著名攝影師Wing Shya的攝影展，以及AliveNotDead.com的音樂會。在這次發布的第二篇章中，我們將會推出關於四位來自紐約的國際知名藝術家Suitman、José Parlá、Rostarr以及Deanne Cheuk的專題故事。

   

  受到冒險精神和遊歷概念的啟發，此次，四位藝術家在中國展開一段為期10天的旅程

  -  The New Grand Tour。他們將從上海出發前往雲南省，其間會到達昆明、麗江、香格里拉、梅里雪山等地。在這次旅行中，藝術家們將尋找全新的經歷和文化交流：拜訪一直堅持保留西藏傳統唐卡藝術的東竹林寺的住持喇嘛；與當地的中國藝術家進行藝術交流；另外還會造訪鄉村學校的學生。

   
  

  The New Grand Tour的最後一站將是香港，並會在11月2日舉辦一場展覽(開幕儀式)。四位藝術家將以素描及攝影藝術展的形式與來賓們分享他們此次中國之旅的體會。同時，藝術展上也將展出四位藝術家各自的藝術作品，這是他們首次在香港展出並銷售自己的作品。之後，這四位才華橫溢的藝術家還將在2008年5月來到北京，為The New Grand Tour作一場完整的展覽。

  
  

  Diesel推出的季刊《BRAVE》最初是受“Only The Brave”— Diesel集團的宗旨 — 這三個詞的啟發而創立，它代表了一種與眾不同的內容、創意和生活態度。之前出版的《BRAVE》雜誌都邀請了不同的嘉賓作藝術總監製作，而這次耳目一新的《BRAVE》將為我們帶來了最真實、最感性的體驗。 2007年10月到12月，以“Alive”為主題的第四期《BRAVE》內容涉及藝術、音樂和時裝，將是一段分為三部分的互動旅程。
