This has been mentioned before by other bloggers but it’s still worth mentioning here. Places and Spaces: Cartography of the Physical and the Abstract is an exhibition that is making the rounds. It’s nearing the end of its journeys but there are still a few more locations it will be visiting. It has a collection of maps, diagrams and map-like objects on its website that is worth perusing, from the antique to the very modern. A nice touch is the side-by-side comparison of maps that might not normally be paired.
