| Summary |
"What happens when a drone enters a gallery or appears on screen? What thresholds are crossed as this weapon of war occupies everyday visual culture? These questions have appeared with increasing regularity since the advent of the War on Terror, when drones began migrating into civilian platforms of film, photography, installation, sculpture, performance art, and theater. As the first monograph dedicated to the subject, this book attempts to not only define the emerging genre of "drone art" but to outline its primary features, identify its historical lineages, and assess its political aspirations"-- Provided by publisher |
