Borderlines: Essays on Mapping and The Logic of Place
Borderlines innovatively explores the ways artistic interventions construct social, cultural, and mental spaces. The fifteen essays bring a broad multidisciplinary approach to the concept of borderlines and its markings through artistic manifestations. Rejecting older “normative” understandings of the word border lines as signifying semantic irreversibility, this work gives prominence to the plasticity of the combined single word “borderlines.” Borderlines is a collection of essays that address the cultural, artistic, conceptual, and performative mapping of places.
