December 5th 2018, 7pm. we present Not an Atlas at Depot in Vienna
(http://www.depot.or.at/index.php?article_id=30&clang=0)
This Is Not an Atlas gathers more than 40 counter-cartographies from all over the world. This collection shows how maps are created and transformed as a part of political struggle, for critical research or in art and education. This Is Not an Atlas seeks to inspire, to document the underrepresented, and to be a useful companion when becoming a counter-cartographer yourself. We want to present this global collection of counter-cartographies in a way that activists, academics, artists, counter-cartographers, editors and authors of This Is Not an Atlas can share their experiences in different ways.
We enjoyed our release events in Berlin and Hamburg so much, that we will continue to do Not-an-Atlas Presentations in other cities and countries. At Depot kollektiv orangotango will present our overall work and Not an Atlas in specifically. With the Vienna based cartographer Florian Ledermann (Research Group Cartagrophy, TU-Wien / GenderATlas) we will discuss Not an Atlas as well as his and our experience in critical cartography.
