5.0 out of 5 stars
the best thing out there,
This review is from: Situationist International: A User's Guide (Paperback)
This book is the best resource up to now on the history of the Situationist movement. I have read just about everything published on this subject, even in French, and this book stands head and shoulders above the rest. The text explains things clearly and without the usual mythologizing. Which doesn't stop it from being quite favorable to the Situationists. And the accompanying pictures, many in color, are by far the best selection of situationist art or anti-art available in print. Included for example are Guy Debord's most famous collages and psychogeographic maps, color reproductions of works by Asger Jorn, examples of the underrepresented German faction of the Situationist movement, a sample from Ralph Rumney's "Psychogeographic Venice", and many good-quality photos of the various contributors to the movement - with (sadly a key point) accurate captions.
