Internationale situationniste ephemera, 1947-1975.

An artificial collection of printed manifestoes, tracts, exhibition catalogs and posters created by members of Internationale situationniste (I.S.), including Enrico Baj, Asger Jorn and Guy Debord. The founding of this politically charged artistic and literary movement can be traced through the small amount of ephemera by the Internationale lettriste and Bauhaus imaginiste groups, both precursors to I.S. A number of documents by Spur, a German faction of I.S., record the internal tensions within I.S. which would eventually disintegrate the movement. Ephemera includes "Manifeste des surrealistes-revolutionnaires en France" (1947); "Manifeste de la peinture nucleaire" (1952); "Ça commence bien! / Familiers du grand truc" (1954); "Ceramiche: incontro internazionale di Albisola"(1954); "Finis les pieds plats" (1954); "Perchè le Bauhaus e' così importante?" (1955); "Construisez vous-mêmes une petite situation sans avenir" (1955); "Ordre de boycott" (1956); "Manifestez en faveur de l'urbanisme unitaire" (1956); "Toutes ces dames au salon!" (1956); "Première exposition de psychogéographie" (1957); "Contro lo stile / contre le style / the end of style" (1957); "The naked city: illustration de l'hypothése des plaques tournantes en psychogeographique" (1957); "Nouveau théatre d'opérations dans la culture" (1958); "Nervenruh!
