KATHERINE HARMON

11/24/2009 7:00 pm
Seattle's Katharine "Kitty" Harmon makes a most welcome return visit to Elliott Bay tonight with a stunning new book of maps of territories both strange and familiar—produced by artists working in paint, salt, old magazines, gloves, found items, and on the artists' own bodies. The Map as Art: Contemporary Artists Explore Cartography (Princeton Architectural Press) includes photographs of maps by 350 artists, including Ed Rushka, Julian Schnabel, Maya Lin, Guillermo Kuitca, and Gale Jamieson, and features essays on some of the artists by art historian Gayle Clemans. Kitty Harmon, the author of over a dozen books, was her more recently with You Are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination.
