Paolo Cirio presents the three series of works Attention, Property,
and Derivatives in his solo show Images Rights at NOME Gallery in
Berlin. The exhibition Images Rights expands upon Cirio's concept
of Internet Photography, with a particular focus on the economic,
legal, and semantic values of photos circulating online. These
Cirio's works explore modes of appropriation art to address the
political economy of images. Rather than authorship, these artworks
problematize the ownership, liability, and social responsibility of
the production and distribution of photos on the Internet. The
series Attention, Property, and Derivatives each examine,
respectively: images as currency of the attention economy, images
as capital, and images as finance.
THIS MONOGRAPH FEATURES PAOLO CIRIO'S CONCEPTS, MODELS, AND
INTERVENTIONS UTILIZING THE FLOWCHART AS ARTISTIC MEDIUM. CIRIO'S
WORK CHALLENGES AND INVESTIGATES THE ECONOMICS, POLITICS,
TECHNOLOGY, AND SEMIOTICS OF THE GLOBAL INFORMATION ORDER. THIS
SURVEY FEATURES THE ARTIST'S USE OF FLOWCHARTS AS A VISUAL STRATEGY
FOR SOPHISTICATED APPARATUSES, IDEAS, AND ACTIONS. CIRIO'S
RESEARCH, INTERVENTIONISM, ACTIVISM, AND INTELLECTUAL ENGAGEMENT
ARE PRESENTED IN INSTALLATIONS AND ARTIFACTS BOTH IN DIALOGUE WITH
THE LEGACY OF CONCEPTUAL ART AND THE ADVANCEMENT OF CONTEMPORARY
ART. ARTWORKS: Foundations; Meaning; Sociality; Daily Paywall;
Global Direct; Art Commodities; World Currency; Loophole for All;
Gift Finance - P2P Gift Credit Cards; Hacking Monopolism Trilogy;
Face to Facebook; Amazon Noir; Google Will Eat Itself; Open Society
Structures; and early sketches.
Today, human sociality is affected by devices subtly designed to
program behaviors and profile citizens. This book contains over 250
selected patents that the artist Paolo Cirio found by sifting
through over 20,000 inventions he published on the website
https://sociality.today. The artist organized the patents into
chapters such as Discrimination, Polarization, Addiction,
Deception, Targeting, Control, and Surveillance. With this artwork,
Cirio exposes inventions that employ devious psychological and
profiling tactics through artificial intelligence, algorithms, data
mining, and user interfaces. As artistic provocation, the Coloring
Book of Technology for Social Manipulation proposes the cathartic,
childlike exercise of coloring to both educate and inform through
the visually rendered compositions of outlined flowcharts and
patent titles.

OVEREXPOSED is composed of a series of nine unauthorized photos of
high-ranking U.S. intelligence officials of the NSA, CIA, NI, and
FBI who were related to Edward Snowden's revelations. The
appropriated material was found by monitoring photos and selfies
published on Internet public platforms without the control of the
officials. The images were reproduced with the street art HD
Stencils technique, and they were disseminated onto public walls
throughout major cities. The artwork satirizes the era of
ubiquitous surveillance and overly-mediated political personas by
exposing the officials accountable for secretive mass surveillance
and over-classified intelligence programs. New modes of
circulation, appropriation, contextualization, and technical
reproduction of images are integrated into this artwork.
