Stuart Ewen, 1986 - 1992

 File — Box: 5

Comment from Mark Dery

The writings of, and interviews with, Stuart Ewen, an eminent historian of visual culture (especially advertising and propaganda) and noted media critic, exerted a profound influence on my thinking about culture jamming. I corresponded with Ewen over the years and maintained an on-again, off-again collegial relationship with him. The file contains articles by and about Ewen, reviews of his books, and other materials related to his activities not only as a critic of “the Society of the Spectacle” (Guy DeBord) but as a jammer himself, through projects such as Encyclopaedia Billboardica.
