vive sans les temps mort!


Speaking of art school: Art Forum on my art school hero and leader of the Situationist movement, Guy Debord. Best known for authoring the manifesto The Society of the Spectacle (1977), his films have recently regained the spotlight. I know more about the movement than the man, and the SI still stirs my imagination, as they stirred 1960s Paris. Liberating everyday life, living life as art, is still subversive.

"The spectacle is not a collection of images; it is a social relation between people that is mediated by images." - Guy Debord
