Aram Bartholl, Map, 2006-2010, public installation, sculpture, 6 x3,50 x 0,35 m
'Map' is a public space installation questioning the red map marker of the location based search engine Google Maps. With a small graphic icon Google marks search results in the map interface.
'Map' is set up at the exact spot where Google Maps assumes to be the city center of the city. Transferred to physical space the map marker questions the relation of the digital information space to every day life public city space. The perception of the city is increasingly influenced by geolocation services.
