I don't think anyone would consider the city or a mall running their security cameras data through facial recognition an artistic endeavor.

I don't think anyone would consider someone taking a picture in public to run afoul of this law.

I guarantee you someone will. But my point was about the first amendment being applicable to the topic of photography, not about a state law. And art was an example, not a definition of speech.
