Résumé:

"The Situationist International: A User's Guide is the first single volume to present a complete guide to the most notorious and radical art movement of the twentieth century, the Situationist International (SI). Simon Ford offers a unique history and analysis of the SI and its main protagonists, including Guy Debord, Asger Jorn, Constant and Michele Bernstein." "Tracing its development back to the European avant-garde, Ford provides a comprehensive historical background to the SI's foundation. Looking at painting, architecture and cinema, and tactics more peculiar to the group, such as detournement and psychogeography, the book also maps the SI's legacy within subsequent artistic and activist movements, from punk to culture jamming."--BOOK JACKET.
