London Map Fair Lectures
‘You are not here’ Adam Dant’s diverting maps :
In this richly illustrated talk fine artist and cartographer Adam Dant describes the conception, research and construction that underpin his printed pictorial maps.
Ranging from ‘dream cartography’ whereby neighbourhoods are redrawn according to the nocturnal reveries of their inhabitants to a city map devoted exclusively to the presence of tortoises Dant’s maps are diverting to the extent that their users are transported to zones most unfamiliar and disorientating.
Saturday: 14.30
Talks by Ashley Baynton-Williams throughout the weekend on map collecting for beginners.
