Meaning & Analysis
This 2006 lithograph from Invader’s Maps collection has been released as a limited signed print edition of 50. The graphic work features an abstracted map of Vienna, and highlights Invader’s interventions across the city. The work is topped with a key that informs the viewer on how to use the map, and a pixelated Space Invader figure appears on the left-hand banner.
This work documents the street artist’s ‘Invasion’ Of Vienna in 2006. The abstracted map of the city is marked with small Space Invader icons that denote the exact locations of Invader’s work. At the very top of the work, a key of figures gives more information on Invader’s global Space Invaders Project, as he seeks to paste his work around the world. The ‘Wave’ number indicates how many times Invader has returned to the city, and the ‘Invasions’ number tells the viewer how many Invader works there are to find across the city. Next to these figures is a ‘Score’, based on Invader’s own scoring system, which highlights the success of this particular ‘Invasion’.
Every element of this map has been stylised with Invader’s signature Space Invader characters. Even the compass to the lower right of the composition is topped with a Space Invader, adding to the treasure map appeal of the work. Through this signed print, Invader invites you to play his game and explore the city to find his work throughout Vienna.
