In Hamburg, the purpose-designed Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, completed in 1926, organized Warburg's remarkable library. After the Warburg Institute transferred to London in 1933 this pattern of seminal architectural commissioning continued, including projects designed by the avant-garde practice Tecton during the 1930s, and culminating in the construction of the library's present home at Woburn Square, Bloomsbury in 1958. This book follows the concept of \u003ci\u003ebilderfahrzeuge\u003c\/i\u003e, meaning \"image vehicle,\" to follow these building histories using archive photographs, drawings and a series of architectural models. It shows how the Warburg scholars projected a connection between their own physical occupancy of architectural space and their shared ideas about intellectual order, cultural survival and memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tim Anstey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3775755209\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783775755207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hatje Cantz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/13\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.90h x 8.30w x 0.40d","brand":"Tim Anstey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48930328379647,"sku":"9783775755207","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/warburg-models-tim-anstey-9783775755207","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
