Topic: Lettriste Internationale


  
  3. A Critique of Everyday Life | libcom.org library
A merger of the Internationale lettriste with two other avant-garde groups gave birth to the Situationist International (the IS) in 1957.
The situationists began their activities of contestation (from 1957, and earlier in the Internationale lettriste) with an implacable attack on all aestheticism, on all separate art.
On the advice of the situationists, they used union funds for the purpose of publishing a number of situationist tracts and pamphlets, and then dissolved their own union branch, arguing in justification that all syndicalism is of the nature of a mystique and bureaucratic to boot.

 Lettrist International   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The Lettrist International (LI) was the first breakaway group from Isidore Isou's Lettrist Movement (LM}.
One of their most important texts was Ivan Chtcheglov's Formula for a New Urbanism which was not published until 1958 in the first issue of the journal Situationniste Internationale.
He advocated a new city where everyone would be able to live in their own cathedral.

 Asger Jorn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The following year he travelled to Albisola in Italy where he became involved with an offshoot of COBRA, the International Movement For An Imaginist Bauhaus.
He was a prime mover of the merger of the COBRA with the Lettriste Internationale and London Psychogeographical Association to form the Situationist International (SI).
Here he applied his scientific and mathematical knowledge drawn from Henri Poincaré and Niels Bohr to develop his situlogical technique.

Situationist work, like the poetry sewn to the inner seam of the Lettristes' jeans, was displayed in action, as they walked, or rather wandered, in that most typical Situationist activity of 'drifting', or 'psycho-geography', which could take them, as in one noted occasion, deep into the sewers of Paris.
After gagging and immobilising the priest, one of the Lettristes mounted the pulpit dressed as the priest and intoned gravely, "Frères, Dieu est mort", before going on to elaborate the consequences of this statement in detail.
So, on the 28 July 1957, Delegates from the "L'Internationale Lettriste" and from the largely Scandinavian and German, "Mouvement pour un Bauhaus imaginiste" along with the "London Psychogeographical Committee", met up at a formal Congress at Coscio d'Aroscia, in Italy and decided to amalgamate: "L'internationale Situationiste" was born.

Debord’s ideological split with Isou led to his formation of the Internationale lettriste (IL) in 1952—the group of Left Bank miscreants from which SI is directly descended.
Ford goes on to chronicle both the Lettrist and Situationist International in great detail, from who attended what meeting to which members fell out of favor with Debord—which, in any cult of personality, means instant ostracism.
Much of this blow-by-blow chronicle seems superfluous, though the presentation of Debord’s cyclical pattern of collaboration with—and then ruthless exclusion of—certain individuals is intriguing, at least from a psychological perspective.

The Tribe vividly captures, through conversations between Mension, Gérard Berréby and Francesco Milo, these nihilistic times and adds flesh to the myriad of obscure names associated with the group's small mimeographed magazine, Internationale Lettriste.
As he recalls in the book it was also to prove his downfall.
When it arrived late for inclusion in Debord's new journal, Internationale situationniste, Rumney was summarily excommunicated.

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 in 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....

The Revolution of Everyday Life (Traité de savoir-vivre à l'usage des jeunes générations), published in the same year as The Society of the Spectacle, helped broaden and balance the presentation of the SI's theories and practices.
One of the longest SI members, and frequent editor of the journal Internationale Situationniste, Vaneigem finally left the SI in November of 1970, citing their failures as well as his own in his letter of resignation.
Soon after, Debord issued a typically scathing response denouncing both Vaneigem and his critique of the Situationist International.

In General I think you will find late 70's punk to be waaay over documented and 80's hardcore virtually ignored.
It is very fashionable in academic circles to treat late 70's punk as if it was the last incarnation of DA Da or the Lettriste Internationale but dismiss 80's hardcore and suburban teen angst.
If you ask me Hardcore Punk has affected many more people than DA DA ever will.
