Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to the work of a group of avant-garde artists and cultural theorists active in several European countries from 1957 to 1972. Known formally as the Internationale Situationniste, the group was influenced by Dada, Surrealism, Marxism, and anarchism. The movement was highly politicized and often defaced appropriated imagery and comic strips with revolutionary slogans. Founded by Guy Debord, Situationists were influential in the developments of the general strike in Paris, May 1968.
