Film Curatorship
Guy Debord
Archives, Museums, and the Digital Marketplace, Second Edition
Edited by Paolo Cherchi Usai, David Francis, Alexander Horwath, and Michael Loebenstein
Das filmische Gesamtwerk Edited and translated by Werner Rappl in collaboration with Wolfgang Kukulies
Film Curatorship is an experiment: a collective text, a montage of dialogues, conversations, and exchanges among four professionals representing three generations of film archivists and curators. It calls for an open philosophical and ethical debate on fundamental questions the profession must come to terms with in the twenty-first century. The second edition features a new preface by the authors.
In his films, Guy Debord (1931–1994) worked according to the following principle: do nothing you should, do everything you should not. Created between 1952 and 1978, all the films reflect this rule and confirm what he referred to as his “detestable ambition.” Gathered in a single volume for the first time in German, this publication unites the texts of all of Guy Debord’s films in a new translation.
