«Símbolo, comunicación y consumo» is the essay on philosophy and aesthetics by Gillo Dorfles, published by Lumen in 1984 in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
Dorfles analyzes three features of today's world: communication, increasingly intense and widespread; the growing weight of symbol systems; and consumption, understood as the accelerated wear of forms. Going beyond the artistic, it offers a key to interpreting our ways of behaving and working, and presents a lucid picture.
The essay belongs to the Palabra en el Tiempo collection, Essay series, number 35. The edition includes plates with photographs. The translation is by María Rosa Viale.
A work of interest for readers of philosophy, aesthetics and communication theory.
Angelo Eugenio "Gillo" Dorfles was an Italian art critic, painter, and philosopher.
