Stephen Walter | The Island Book Signing at the Royal Academy | The World in a Mirror Exhibition | Antwerp




London Original Print Fair Exclusive Book Signing & Meet the Artist
Saturday 25th April | 1 – 2pm | RA Burlington House, Piccadilly | W1J OBD

We're delighted to announce that Stephen Walter will be joining us at the 30th anniversary of the London Original Print Fair at the Royal Academy this Saturday to sign copies of his eagerly awaited publication The Island: London Mapped, ahead of its official release on May 1st. This beautifully illustrated book reconfigures Stephen's critically acclaimed sold out map The Island, transforming it into his own version of a London street atlas which enables readers to explore his unique vision of the city by flicking through its pages.

Friday also sees the opening of 'The World In A Mirror' at MAS Antwerp, which features two of Stephen's richly imaginative and detailed maps, London Subterranea and Nova Utopia.

The exhibition presents a journey through the Western interpretation of the world, through 150 unique world maps, globes and objects. Stephen is one of only three contemporary artists exhibited, and his work adds his own distinctive reflections to this fascinating history.
