Summary:
Cinquante ans après la disparition de l'architecte Le Corbusier, qu'en est-il de la sauvegarde de son oeuvre? D'autant que la situation et donc la conservation de ses réalisations connaissent une mutation profonde : changement de propriétaire ou d'usage, parfois les deux. D'un autre côté, les contraintes environnementales ou réglementaires risquent d'affecter leur authenticité et leur intégrité. Au-delà du simple entretien, la réparation voire la restauration soulève la question du remplacement de nombreux éléments qui ne se trouvent plus : comment faire ? L'expérimentation systématique a entraîné de nombreux désordres : comment les reprendre aujourd'hui ? Comment traiter un béton corrodé ? Comment procéder à une consolidation structurelle ? Comment adapter aux nouvelles normes de sécurité et de confort ? Comment traiter les modifications suscitées par l'usage au fil du temps ? Voilà tout un registre de questions théoriques et pratiques qui se posent présentement, et plus généralement pour toute l'architecture du XXe siècle.

Summary:
First published in 1967, Guy Debord's stinging revolutionary critique of contemporary society, The Society of the Spectacle has since acquired a cult status. Credited by many as being the inspiration for the ideas generated by the events of May 1968 in France, Debord's pitiless attack on commodity fetishism and its incrustation in the practices of everyday life continues to burn brightly in today's age of satellite television and the soundbite. In Comments on the Society of the Spectacle, published twenty years later, Debord returned to the themes of his previous analysis and demonstrated how they were all the more relevant in a period when the integrated spectacle was dominant. Resolutely refusing to be reconciled to the system, Debord trenchantly slices through the doxa and mystification offered tip by journalists and pundits to show how aspects of reality as diverse as terrorism and the environment, the Mafia and the media, were caught up in the logic of the spectacular society. Pointing the finger clearly at those who benefit from the logic of domination, Debord's comments convey the revolutionary impulse at the heart of situationism.
