Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An Edifice of IdeasArchitectural patronage was crucial for the thinking of Aby Warburg and his circle. In Hamburg the purpose-designed Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg, completed in 1926, organized Warburg's remarkable library. From 1927 Warburg developed ideas about orientation in the radical transformation of a disused water tower into the Hamburg Planetarium. 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. Warburg Models: Buildings as Bilderfahrzeuge follows this history, using archive photographs, architectural drawings and a series of architectural models to show 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.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neu -Im Denken Aby Warburgs und seines Kreises spielte die Architektur eine besondere Rolle. 1926 wurde ein eigens für die Kulturwissenschaftliche Bibliothek Warburg entworfenes Gebäude fertiggestellt und nur kurze Zeit später war Warburg maßgeblich an der radikalen Transformation eines stillgelegten Wasserturms in ein Planetarium für Hamburg beteiligt. Auch nach der Emigration des Warburg-Instituts nach London 1933, setzte sich dieses Muster der architektonischen Auftragsvergabe in der Zusammenarbeit mit der Avantgarde-Gruppe Tecton und schließlich 1958 im Bau des heutigen Gebäudes der Bibliothek am Woburn Square in Bloomsbury fort. »Warburg Models. Buildings as Bilderfahrzeuge« geht dieser Geschichte nach und zeigt anhand von Archivfotos, Architekturzeichnungen und einer Reihe von Architekturmodellen, wie die Gelehrten um Warburg eine Verbindung zwischen ihrer eigenen Aneignung und Ausgestaltung des architektonischen Raums sowie zu ihren gemeinsamen Vorstellungen von intellektueller Ordnung und kulturellem Fortleben herstellten. Mari Lending und Tim Anstey sind Professoren an der Oslo School of Architecture and Design. Ihr Seminar zum Verhältnis von Warburg-Schule und Architektur auf der Grundlage von Archivmaterial hat sich - nicht zuletzt wegen der engagierten Beteiligung der modellbauenden Studierenden - zu einem Ausstellungs- und Buchprojekt weiterentwickelt.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A history of architecture, not as the art of what stays but of what changes and moves.A history of architecture, not as the art of what stays but of what changes and moves.We tend to think of architecture as a practice in permanence, but what if we looked instead for an architecture of transience? In Things That Move, Tim Anstey does just that: rather than assuming that architecture is, at a certain level, stationary, he considers how architecture moves subjects (referring to its emotive potential in the experience it creates); how it moves objects (referring to how it choreographs bodies in motion); and how it is itself moved (referring to the mixture of materials, laws, affordances, and images that introduce movement into any architectural condition).The first of the book's three sections, "Cargoes," highlights the mobile peripheries of architectural history through the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It asks what kinds of knowledge can be included under a discussion of something called architecture, noting the connections between discourses of the lithe and the technical, on the one hand, and those associated with the production of monumental, static compositions on the other. The second section, "Dispatches," reinterprets early architectural theory by examining the Renaissance ideal of decorum, the nature of the architectural work, and the ways in which architects are constituted as authors. Lastly, "Vehicles" considers building in terms of literal and metaphorical movement, using two cases from the twentieth century that investigate the relationship between architecture and cultural memory.Using a broadly forensic approach to connect details in otherwise disparate cases, Things That Move is a breathtakingly capacious architectural account that will change the way readers understand buildings, their becoming, and their significance. "Things that Move presents eight interconnected essays that collectively explode the myth of architecture as the realm only of the static, and instead advocates movement as the single dynamic for understanding architecture's recent and distant past"-- Provided by publisher.
