Participating artists Michael Ashkin, Mark Bennett, Russell Crotty, Brian Dettmer, Dawn Gavin, The Hand Drawn Map Association, Kim Jones, Nina Katchadourian, Karey Kessler, Joyce Kozloff, Eva Lee, Maya Lin, Mark Lombardi, Matthew Picton, Lordy Rodriquez, Yumi Janario Roth, Paula Scher, Deb Sokolo, and Renee Van der Selt.
