Here be Dragons: Mapping the Real and Imagined

January 17-29, 2024

Here be Dragons: Mapping the Real and Imagined presents artworks from the Philbrook collection that span over three hundred years of history, and that build a sense of place, whether real or imagined. The exhibition, which features a range of interpretations of locations, moments, or even experiences, includes elaborate topographic views of seventeenth-century Europe alongside contemporary prints that explore abstract conceptions of land, including representations of memory and the contested nature of property and ownership. Whether depicting a bird’s-eye view of a landscape, the iconic architecture of a city, or the idea of place, the artworks in Here be Dragons provides a chance for visitors to step into landscapes and to consider not only the perspectives of the artists, but also perhaps their own relationship to the places they experience every day.
