A Midcentury Modern Atlas

Wolfsonian-FIU

Sat, November 19th @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm EST

Modern artists have shaped our understanding of geography. A prime example is the innovative approach to map design and data visualization in Herbert Bayer’s 1953 World Geo-Graphic Atlas, a source of inspiration for generations of designers. Art historian Ben Benus, author of a forthcoming book about the Atlas, will examine how Bayer developed his imaginative design solutions while highlighting the broader historical relationships between modernist art and maps.
