Post-conflict (Des)Integratins. Situationist Experimentalism against the Reformism of the Noveau Roman
Abstract
Since 1945, after the end of the Second World War, the art considered so far as a vanguard is assimilated by the mass culture that is gradually gaining ground in the new Western democracies. In France, Dadaism and Surrealism are welcomed and celebrated by the great urban mass in a way that the marginal and revolutionary position they had before the war is now displaced. They move from the periphery to the centre of the culture, and they leave a gap that will be quickly contested by different movements, such as Lettrism, the CoBrA group, Situationism, or Nouveaux. They will propose new and very different approaches to art.Downloads
