Recenzii
'[Amoroso] has brought to the forefront a visually exciting way to view information that has spatial, creative and suggestive outcomes. With a background in landscape architecture, urban design and architecture, she crafts maps as some kind of landscape form perceived by the data type. Maps as metaphor, the data as metaphor, map as art, data as art.' – Richard Saul Wurman, Information Architect
'We are on a cusp and Nadia Amoroso is one of the team players on this cusp of the New Map ... showing patterns with great clarity and singularity, combining scientific, physical structures, atmospheric conditions and showing these patterns over time, a day, a week, a month, a year or a decade.' – Richard Saul Wurman, Information Architect
'Nadia Amoroso takes the art and science of transforming statistical urban data into innovative maps to the next level in her recent book The Exposed City: Mapping the Urban Invisibles... The author provides guiding principles to suggest a selection process that proves useful to achieving the right balance between aesthetics and empirical evidence in the process of creating a a map.' - Amit Patel, Journal of Planning Education and Research

Descriere
Amoroso draws on unseen elements of the city – like crime rates and surveillance – to create mapping for the twenty-first century. Including expert interviews and examples of maps exposing the hidden elements of the city, The Exposed City shows how the urban invisibles can be made visible.
