Negación y consumo en la cultura

Description

Highlighting that Guy Debord’s The Society of the Spectacle “summarizes the most coherent thesis of modern revolutionary theory developed by the Situationist International,” Leandro Katz published Negación y consumo en la cultura [Negation and Consumption in Culture] under his own imprint, El Triángulo Rotador Evanescente [The Evanescent Rotating Triangle].
Focused on the translation of Chapter VIII—from which it took its title—and preceded by theses 1, 2, 4, 30 and 32 as a prologue, this pirate, freely reproducible edition, presented in 1972 as an “unsolicited contribution” to the III Coltejer Art Biennial in Medellín, was the first Spanish-language edition of these texts intended for public distribution.
This second edition presents the same texts with new features and translations that follow the procedure set out in Cómo no traducir textos situacionistas y otros textos no traducidos (æ, 2026.11) and make use of the neologisms presented there: deturnamento and deturnado.
