Definition(s)

  • Situationist International (SI) was a group of artists and thinkers whose aim was to eliminate capitalism and its alienating effects through the revolution of everyday life. Formed in 1957, the SI were a conglomeration of several already existing art groups from different European countries—Lettrist International from France; Movement for an Imaginist Bauhaus in Denmark; COBRA, the Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam Surrealist design collective; and the London Psychogeo-graphical Committee from England.
