Surveillance Society, Surveillance Art, Privacy, Aesthetic of SurveillanceAbstract
The purpose of this text is to present the model of surveillance society and to reflect on the ways proposed by artists to interrogate and resist this model. More and more citizens have abdicated the right to privacy in exchange for the convenience brought with complex surveillance systems. Hence, giving away personal data has become the currency for living in a connected world. In this context, we consider some works in the field of artveillance, grounded on the idea of aesthetics of surveillance, in order to understand how the artists have positioned themselves in this situation. We consider the concepts of privacy, dataveillance and the impossibility for 21st century citizens to prevent it. These reflections are based on texts by Jan Holvast (2007) and David Lyon (2009).
