Scope and Contents
This anthology is a collection of critical texts giving an overview of the was in which Situationism has been "historicized" in the Anglo-American world. Contributing writers include underground legends, art theorists, ultra-leftists and academics. Bob Black writes, ...Greil Marcus, after being tutored by pro-situ Tom Ward, ended the media blackout of situationism with an article in the Village Voice. Situationism was now on its way to becoming, if not quite a household word, an avant-hip buzzword. Marcus followed up on his article with the 1989 volume Lipstick Traces, an uncritical, disorganized, but not uninformative treatment of situationism, punk rock, etc...." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
