Lecture No 1 ON PATROL
By Jill Magid and Julia Scher.
The work of the American artist Jill Magid (1973) is riddled with
double meanings. She transgresses the boundaries of observation,
becomes a voyeur and turns us into voyeurs as well. In the era of
surveillance cameras, seeing and being seen has become commonplace and
is one of Magid’s favourite tools.
For years and years Julia Scher (1954) has been making complex
installations with surveillance cameras, revealing the mechanisms and
menace attendant on technological developments in this field. She has
also made photoworks and works for the Web. Her work is frequently
shown in the United States and Europe. Scher regularly delivers
lectures about security under the title Security by Julia.
