Matt Mullican
88 maps, conversation with Bernard Blistène
03 Mar 2013
The event is over
A pioneer in the use of the computer for drawing and design, over the last forty years artist Matt Mullican has constructed a personal cosmology that blends geometric forms, ancient alphabets, pictograms, diagrams, printed circuits and virtual worlds, using a limited range of colours (red, blue, yellow and green). In this way he has managed to make a history of the world in 88 maps and these maps have made a book. This arcane and personal vision also offers a view of the mind at work, of its circuits as shortcuts and sudden surges. The 2011 Jean Lurcat Prize was awarded to 88 MAPS (Three Star Books) in 2011.
