Location: STUDIO I,J

On the occasion of its 25th birthday and its unprecedented location in France, Vis 2014 will host an exhibit on Jacques Bertin. Jacques Bertin was a French cartographer whose 1967 monograph Sémiologie Graphique (Semiology of Graphics) has had a great influence on the Vis community. This exhibit will focus on Jacques Bertin’s work that is less known by the community. It will showcase unique documents on loan from the Archives de France and the Archives Nationales, including his physical matrices and work from his colleagues conducted at the Laboratoire de Cartographie, which he founded in 1954. The exhibition was made possible with the support of Tableau Software.
