Library of Maps

Porter Faculty Gallery, UCSC

Organized by Sesnon Gallery director Shelby Graham and History of Art and Visual Culture faculty Boreth Ly, and sponsored by the Porter College Distinguished Artist & Lecturer Fund.

The exhibition consists of broadsheets, drawings by Slobodan Dan Paich, photographs by Dennis Letbetter, and collection of stones and text by Moira Roth. Roth taught at the University of California (Irvine: 1970-1972, Santa Cruz: 1973-1974, and UC San Diego: 1974–1985), and currently holds an endowed chair at Mills College.
