The map, as it appears in Gilles Deleuze's writings, is a concept
guiding the exploration of new territories, no matter how abstract.
With the advent of new media and digital technologies, contemporary
artists have imagined a panoply of new spaces that put Deleuze's
concept to the test. Deleuze's concept of the map bridges the gap
between the analog and the digital, information and representation,
virtual and actual, canvas and screen and is therefore best suited
for the contemporary artistic landscape. Deleuze and the Map-Image
explores cartography from philosophical and aesthetic perspectives
and argues that the concept of the map is a critical touchstone for
contemporary multidisciplinary art. This book is an overview of
Deleuze's cartographic thought read through the theories of
Sloterdijk, Heidegger, and Virilio and the art criticism of Laura
U. Marks, Carolyn L. Kane, and Alexander Galloway, shaping it into
a critical tool through which to view the works of cutting edge
artists such as Janice Kerbel and Hajra Waheed, who work with
digital and analog art. After all, Deleuze did write that a map can
be conceived as a work of art, and so herein art is critiqued
through cartographic strategies.
