 
    Paul Virilio puts art back where it matters - at the centre of politics. Art used to be an engagement between artist and materials. But in our new media world art has changed, its very materials have changed and have become technologized. This change reflects a broader social shift. Speed and politics - what Virilio defined as the key characteristics of the twentieth century - have been transformed in the twenty-first century to speed and mass culture. And the defining characteristic of mass culture today is panic. This induced panic relies on a new, all-seeing technology. And the first casualty of this is the human response. What we are losing is the very human 'art of seeing', one individual's engagement with another or with an event, be that political or artistic. What we are losing is our sense of the aesthetic. Where art used to talk of the aesthetics of disappearance, it must now confront the disappearance of the aesthetic.

Zustand: Como nuevo. : En 'Art as Far as the Eye Can See', Paul Virilio sitúa el arte de nuevo en el centro de la política. El arte solía ser un compromiso entre el artista y los materiales, pero en nuestro mundo mediático el arte ha cambiado; sus propios materiales han cambiado y se han tecnologizado. Este cambio refleja un cambio social más amplio. La velocidad y la política, lo que Virilio definió como las características clave del siglo XX, se han transformado en el siglo XXI en velocidad y cultura de masas. Y la característica definitoria de la cultura de masas hoy en día es el pánico. Este pánico inducido se basa en una nueva tecnología que todo lo ve. Y la primera víctima de esto es la respuesta humana. Lo que estamos perdiendo es el mismo 'arte de ver' humano, el compromiso de un individuo con otro o con un evento, ya sea político o artístico. Lo que estamos perdiendo es nuestro sentido de la estética. Virilio argumenta que, en el siglo XXI, el nuevo campo de batalla será el arte como luz contra el arte como materia.
