Summary: |
"A stunning collection of contemporary art maps from a leading artist that gives a unique view of our history and life today. Award-winning artist Adam Dant's maps of London and beyond are beautiful, subversive and funny illustrations that illuminate the world we live in, and place it within our rich traditions of everything from brawls to gentleman's clubs. From the history of rioting in the City to high-class coffee clubs, from the colourful depiction of London slang over the centuries to the Hogarthian take on city life today and our obsession with money."--Provided by publisher. |
