Markus Jeschaunig

On 6 October 2012, artist Markus Jeschaunig travelled by airship along a line from Graz to Maribor and filmed a high-resolution ground image of the 56 km long landscape between the two Capitals of Culture. This publication documents Jeschaunig's cartographic work, from ISTANBUL on LINE (2007) to Urban Tomography (2010) and the Linienflug Graz-Maribor (2012). The texts in the publication shed light on the phenomenon of the 'line' as an instrument of spatial exploration and establish cross-references between mapping and action in Jeschaunig's artistic work.
