Workshop Series, Network Topographic Visual Media, Autumn 2023/Winter 2024.
Topographic visual media have been and continue to be produced and used in a wide variety of fields, such as science, art, the military, administration, jurisdiction and tourism. Accordingly, the field of investigation includes maps and sea charts, topographic sketches, diagrams and plans, the mapping of planets and seas, and virtual spaces in computer graphics as well as landscape paintings, drawings and prints. In our workshops we aim to understand and examine their functions and applications. The Network Topographic Visual Media provides a platform for academic debate and exchange between research projects and approaches from different disciplines, e.g. image, media and cultural studies, history of art or history of cartography. In our workshops, current research projects on topographic visual media are presented and discussed.

The Network topographic visual media (NtB) cordially invites everyone who is interested to participate in the new autumn/winter series of our online-workshops.
Please register for the series or for single events via e-mail to ntbkunstgeschichte.org
