The Naked City: Guy Debord and Asger Jorn
View through CrossRef
AbstractThis chapter seeks to account for the marked ingress of The Naked City; a 1957 print by Guy Debord and Asger Jorn, into architecture culture. As a product of the anarchist‐Marxist Situationist International avant‐garde, The Naked City announced that modern culture was one of overlap and contingency rather than sequenced and orthogonal repetitive relation. It was a manifesto, of sorts, for revolutionary intervention in the city led by the vanguard intelligentsia, but especially with the waning of the revolutionary culture of the 1960s, it inspired an intervention in the city led by an architectural intelligentsia seekingdesignedrather thanrevolutionaryevents. An account of architecture's adoption of The Naked City's message is then one way of abbreviating the long story of architecture's turn from rationalist to postmodern urbanism.
