"Intelligence" suggests both covert information gathering and the faculty used to process information into something new. Many contemporary artists might be seen as intelligence agents at large in society, gathering, sifting, and transforming the raw data of our lives, critically examining our environment, the way we live and our social relationships. This book brings together the work of 22 artists who share such an approach, including Susan Hiller, Gillian Wearing, and Douglas Gordon.
