Tate Modern, Bankside, Southbank, SE1 9TG

Exhibitions: , Art, Photography, Gallery

How Much: £10.00 (Tickets) , £8.50 (Concessions)
CCTV cameras get a bad name. On the one hand they're a Big Brother-esque imposition upon our privacy; but on the other, most of them don't actually work anyway. Do they make us safe, or paranoid?

Tate Modern presents an exhibition exploring this and many other issues related to surveillance and the act of looking. There's photography on show from the late nineteenth century right up until the present day, by some of the medium's most respected names. This should be fascinating.

Until 19.09.10.
