This book maps the presence of moving images within the field of
public art through encounters with passersby. It argues that far
from mere distraction or spectacle, moving images can produce
moments of enchantment that can renew, intensify, or challenge our
everyday engagement with public space and each other. These
artworks also offer frameworks for understanding how moving images
operate in public space-how they move viewers and reconfigure the
site of the screen. Each chapter explores a mode of address that
examines how artists and curators leverage the moving image's
attentional power to engage audiences, create spaces, make place,
and challenge assumptions. This book also examines the difficulties
and compromises that arise when using urban screens for public art.
