A day-long investigation of alternative cartographies by artists, writers, activists, and you. Free, open-to-the-public activities throughout the afternoon include projections of maps from Rebecca Solnit’s new, collaborative book project Infinite City: A San Francisco Atlas. In Project Space, Seher Shah’s drawings use architectural space as a metaphor for interior worlds and also deal with the idea of objects as intrusions in landscapes, while Richard T. Walker provides visitors unique perspectives on the vistas available from the studio.
From 2 – 3:30PM, From 2 – 3:30PM, Rebecca Solnit presents Infinite City: Mapping Trees, Love, Time, Butterflies, Salmon, Zen, and Practically Everything Else in San Francisco. Solnit will discuss the Atlas project and join naturalist Derek Hitchcock and others in a conversation about Map #20, which pairs the topics of Bay Area salmon migration and the spread of Soto Zen Buddhism through the region and beyond.
