This illustrated study examines Boetti's 1988 work Mappa, one of the artist's series of woven tapestry maps of the world. In the cartography of this Mappa, each country is depicted by its flag; its pre-postcommunist picture of the world shows the Soviet Union as a vast expanse of red in the upper eastern corner, projecting the last image of a long-failed socialist utopia.
