Anne Wilson’s (work pictured above) installation
at the 2002 Whitney Biennial was a vast white

lace, addressing concepts of cartography, domes-
tic linens and space/time. Wilson’s evocative
installations and interactive websites have earned
her multiple National Endowment for the Arts

Metropolitan Museum of Art in
New York. Wilson will give a
lecture at the UO. See
