Books by Katharine Harmon

Katharine Harmon, author of You Are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination, proposes a show-stopping hardcover book featuring map-related artistic visions. The Map as Art is filled with 250 works by well-known artists--Joyce Kozloff, Ed Ruscha, Julian Schnabel, Olafer Eliasson, Paul Scher, William Kentridge, Vik Muniz, Guillermo Kuitca, Joseph Cornell, and Maya Lin, for example--and many more less-familiar artists for whom maps are the inspiration for creating art. All are wayfinders, charting the highways and byways of the spirit and the topography of the soul.
