Abstract

The essay raises several discussions about the relationship between art and cartography trough the analysis of cartographic procedures in maps made by contemporary artists. By investigating the ephemeral and interstitial regions in these maps, the cartography artist is interested in the inadequacy which is intrinsic to cartography, owing to the impossibility to make maps coincide with the objects they represent. Such maps reveal the imaginative process typical of cartography in its contemporaneous spaces.
