A multidisciplinary approach defines his practice, comprising photography, installation, journalism and science... Emphasising the extensive reach of global information and data networks... As a whole, the pieces offer dialogues about the nature of public and private spheres in the 21st century... The book offers readers insight into the socio-political structures that define the everyday experience, establishing its importance to a broad spectrum of audiences.\u0026quot;\u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eAesthetica\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026quot;As the latest subject of Phaidon's ever-expanding series of artist monographs, Trevor Paglen occupies a particularly political space... Paglen's subject matter is usually unseen only because there is someone out there who doesn't want it to be... An interview with Lauren Cornell maps out Paglen's rather unusual career trajectory... These experiences provide some background explanation of the subtle complexity of Paglen's photography... For Paglen, it is not simply enough to expose how these powers permeate society; one must also show a way to circumvent them.\u0026quot;\u0026#8212;\u003cem\u003eSource (Northern Ireland)\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","webShortDescription":"The first complete monograph on an artist whose work investigates surveillance and government secrecy in the digital age"}
