In the early months of ’58, the French section [of the Situationist International] issued two tracts: ’Nouveaux theatre d’operation dans le culture’ and ’Aux producteurs de l’art moderne’. The former schematised the programme of the SI, while the latter invited artists, ’tired of repeating outmoded ideas’, to organise new modes for the transformation of the environment..."--Cf. Home, S. The assault on culture, 1991.
