The map as art / Katharine Harmon
Titre : The map as art : Contemporary artists explore cartography Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Katharine Harmon, Auteur Editeur : New York [USA] : Princeton Architectural Press Année de publication : 207 Importance : 256 p. Présentation : ill. en coul. Format : 25 x 23 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-56898-972-3 Prix : 29.95 € Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : Princeton Architectural Press, 23 sept. 2009 - 256 pages
Maps can be simple tools, comfortable in their familiar form. Or they can lead to different destinations: places turned upside down or inside out, territories riddled with marks understood only by their maker, realms connected more to the interior mind than to the exterior world. These are the places of artists' maps, that happy combination of information and illusion that flourishes in basement studios and downtown galleries alike. It is little surprise that, in an era of globalized politics, culture, and ecology, contemporary artists are drawn to maps to express their visions. Using paint, salt, souvenir tea towels, or their own bodies, map artists explore a world free of geographical constraints.
