Jerry's Map Auction On eBay

For a limited time original Map panels will be available at auction on eBay. Take a look!

Oliver Opening

This Friday, February 27, the Jerry's Map installation at the Oliver Art Center in Frankfort, Michigan will be unveiled. Come down between 5 and 7 PM and see this exciting new for-mat. A huge section of the Map comprising over 2400 panels will be mounted in one contiguous display spanning two walls and two floors.

Map prints, posters, and cards will be available for purchase.

The show continues until April 10. For more information go to: oliverartcenterfrankfort.org

Progress from Paris

I'm writing from the studio here in Northern Michigan to report the latest from Jerry's exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris. Jerry arrived late last week, and today began the process of installing the Map. The entire Map will be on display, so it looks like they have their work cut out for them this week! I know Jerry is very happy to have his family together to join him in Paris for this wonderful achievement. We will keep you updated!

A New Way To Buy Map Images?

Brainstorming ways to make the map easily accessible and view-able to anyone, we came up with the idea of offering scans of Map panels for $.99/each. The .jpeg images would be delivered via email after purchase and would accommodate high enough resolution for you to print at home. However we wanted to send some feelers out before taking on this project- would anyone have any interest? Feel free to reply here or send me an email at sgattic@aol.com

A Map Installation

Our friend, Kathryn, mounted her collection of Map prints in her stairway.

What a great idea!

Technology and me

This is my idea of modern. I refer to it as "clamshell chic." It's basically all the technology I care to have on my body. I do old-fashioned phone calls and receive texts and answer them with as few letters as one or as many as three. I get internet information from my laptop. I get directions from large pieces of printed paper called "maps." I play word games on my wife's i-Phone. Oops! She tells me that I need my own, but I resist. I need to go technology-free for big chunks of my day. That's why I garden. I love that those tiny seeds contain all the instructions for making a long vine which produces giant orange fruit which get carved into spooky candle-bearing jack-o-lanterns. Way more efficient than the silicon guts of cell phones.
