Antispectacle movements

Antispectacle movements are deliberate gestures or actions made to challenge or resist the dominance of visual culture and spectacle-driven entertainment. They aim to disrupt the passive consumption of images, advertisements, and mass media, encouraging critical awareness and active engagement. These movements often advocate for returning agency to viewers by questioning how media influences perceptions and societal norms. In essence, antispectacle actions seek to diminish the power of spectacle in shaping reality, fostering a more conscious and autonomous relationship with media and visual culture.
