From the venue:
In his talk Concepts of Cartography and Visual Art, Dean Steve Aishman will discuss how Nanna Debois Buhl and Hans Christian Schink’s work participate in the continued evolution of cartography by displaying contemporary visual representations of how humans locate themselves in a place. 16,500 BC humans started drawing maps of the night sky. Cartography represents more than just mapping, it represents the human desire to locate where we are in relation to other humans and to the universe around us. As our understanding of the world and ourselves has changed, our maps have changed.
