"Marginalia in cARTography" is guest curated by Sandra Sáenz-López Pérez, 2012-13 David Woodward Memorial Fellow in the History of Cartography, an art historian who specializes in the iconographical analysis of maps and the artistic interest of historical cartography. The exhibition also explores cartography as an art form, with a focus on the representations in the map margins. This exhibition explores the visual discourse between marginal artistic images and the maps where they appear, as this marginalia sheds light on the content and purpose of the maps, their authors and patrons, and on the historical period when they were made. ![]() ![]() 201 & 202.Catalogue of the exhibition "Marginalia in cARTography" at the Chazen Museum of Art, Wisconsin (US).
