Art & Surveillance

Cover of Art & Surveillance
Issue 31:3 | September 2011

Editors: Virginia Fraser and Natalie King

This issue of Artlink approaches the curiosity of surveillance, scopophilia, and compulsive and clandestine looking. Artists, curators, writers and academics reveal the social implications of watching and the way watching is framed. From surreptitious encounters to self-exploitation, they uncover the uneasy questions about who is looking at whom for power or pleasure.
